Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites
Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites, Prehistoric monument complex in Wiltshire, United Kingdom
The site spans two areas separated by 24 kilometers, featuring stone circles, earthworks, burial mounds, and ceremonial structures across 48 square kilometers.
Construction of these monuments began around 3000 BCE during the late Neolithic period, with stones weighing up to 25 tons transported from distant locations.
The monuments demonstrate advanced engineering capabilities of prehistoric societies through precise astronomical alignments and sophisticated construction methods.
Visitors can access both sites throughout the year, with dedicated parking areas, guided tours, and exhibition centers explaining archaeological findings.
The Avebury complex contains the largest stone circle in Europe, with a circumference of 1.3 kilometers enclosing the entire present-day village.
