    The Stonehenge gift shop offers an extensive range of books, gifts and souvenirs, including jewellery and an exclusive range of Barbour clothing and accessories. 

     

  • Toilets

    V

    Male, female toilets, including accessible, baby and adult change facilities, are available at the visitor centre.

    No disposal facilities for toilet cassette waste. Please do not empty motorhome waste in our toilets as the chemicals poison the bacteria we use to breakdown the waste.

    Registered assistance dogs are welcome throughout, including the Stone Circle.

    Dogs on leads are allowed around the visitor centre. Animals are not permitted at the Stone Circle, exhibition, or visitor bus. Find out more.

    The National Trust has recently created dog-free zones in all fields that are grazed by sheep in the Stonehenge landscape where there is permissive access. 

     

  • Exhibition

    V

    Discover the story of Stonehenge: the stones, the landscape, the people and its meaning, through a powerful combination of cutting-edge audio-visual experiences and incredible ancient objects. The exhibition contains nearly 300 archaeological objects, finds from Stonehenge and other nearby monuments, now displayed on site for the first time.

    All the objects are on loan from Salisbury Museum and Wiltshire Museum, Devizes. We recommend a visit to these two museums to find out more about the prehistory of the Stonehenge area.
