The Sanctuary, Archaeological site in the United Kingdom

The Sanctuary is composed of concentric circles made from timber and later stone.

Originally constructed around 3000 years ago in the Bronze Age, it began as a timber structure before being replaced with stones.

It served as a ceremonial site for performing rituals by prehistoric communities.

Visitors can explore the heritage site situated close to the UNESCO World Heritage village of Avebury.

The Sanctuary visually connects several notable prehistoric landmarks within the area.
