Stonehenge Stone Circle News and Information
Visitors to Stonehenge will get the chance to explore an impressive new visitor centre close to the ancient site later this year.
English Heritage today announced that the first phase of its long-awaited £27million improvements to the area will be launched to the public on 18 December, in time for winter solstice on 21 December.
The new visitor centre will house a permanent exhibition that will offer visitors the chance to learn more about the famous monument.
They will be able to ‘stand in the stones’ thanks to a 360-degree virtual experience before they enter a gallery where they will be able to view nearly 300 prehistoric artefacts and displays that reveal facts and theories about the ancient monument.
Many of the archaeological finds – which are on loan from various museums including the Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum – will be on public display for the first time.
