Stonehenge is one of the world’s most famous and mysterious prehistoric monuments.
Many historians believe Stonehenge was a kind of solar calendar used by ancient people to track the movement of the sun and moon and mark the changing seasons. Each year, visitors descend upon Stonehenge to mark the seasonal solstices and mark the sunrise and sunset among the stones.
This year, you can watch the winter solstice live from Stonehenge from right here in Kansas City.
