Recognised as a World Heritage Site for its outstanding Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments, Avebury stone circles and henge are full of traces of our ancient past. Avebury Henge dates from around 4,600 years ago and the outer stone circle is the largest prehistoric circle of standing stones in the world. The Alexander Keiller Museum at Avebury has one of the most important prehistoric archaeologic
al collections in Britain. The collection includes many artefacts from the World Heritage Site and surrounding ancient landscape. Avebury is also home to a 16th-century manor house refurbished in the styles of different historical periods and surrounded by four gardens, each with a different name and individual character.
