About Calanais Standing Stones & Visitor Centre
Calanais Standing Stones and Visitor Centre offers an enchanting exploration of ancient history on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland. This iconic Neolithic site, over 5000 years old, features a unique cruciform-shaped stone circle, believed to have served as both an astronomical observatory and a venue for rituals. Overlooking the picturesque Loch Roag, the stones invite visitors to connect with the past and uncover the mysteries hidden within the landscape.
The Visitor Centre, currently undergoing redevelopment and set to reopen in 2025, will enhance the experience with improved facilities. In the meantime, the Centre plays host to a range of tours, events, and educational programs, all designed to share the rich archaeological heritage of this remarkable location. Managed by Urras nan Tursachan, the Trust works diligently to preserve the site for future generations. Whether you're here to marvel at the megaliths or immerse yourself in the surrounding beauty, Calanais offers a truly transformative journey through history and culture.
