About Esperance Stonehenge
Esperance Stonehenge is a full-scale replica of Stonehenge located on farmland about 10 km north of Esperance in Western Australia. Built from 137 stones of locally quarried Esperance pink granite, it replicates the original monument as it is believed to have appeared around 1950 BC. Notable for its accurate scale, astronomical alignment and distinctive pink granite, it is a privately operated tourism and educational attraction.
