Stonehenge, the famous prehistoric stone circle in southwest England, is being understood as comprehensively as never before through new archaeological and scientific findings. Modern excavations and analyses show that its builders, early farmers 5000 years ago, were part of an exciting and complex cultural landscape. The development of Stonehenge spanned centuries and culminated around 2500 BC in the monumental form that still fascinates today. The international exhibition "STONEHENGE. Uralte Geheimnisse, neue Entdeckungen" presents these research results through around 600 original objects, replicas and immersive media installations. After successful stops in North America, it is now completely revised and supplemented with finds from Bavaria, and is being shown in Central Europe for the first time.
A varied accompanying programme awaits visitors to the exhibition.
