Description
West Kennet Long Barrow is one of the oldest and most impressive Neolithic tombs in Britain, built around 3650 BC.
This remarkable 100-meter-long structure conceals five burial chambers, where the remains of nearly 50 people and everyday objects have been found.
Construction of the tomb required more than 15,000 hours of labor, a testament to the advanced engineering skills of people of the Neolithic era. Entering the burial chambers allows you to take a fascinating trip back in time and experience history for yourself.
