Wiltshire's most important museum is the perfect complement to a visit to nearby Stonehenge, home to some of England's most impressive archaeological finds. The museum takes visitors on a journey through the region's fascinating history of human occupation, from the Neolithic era to the Bronze and Iron Age, through to Roman, Saxon, and medieval times.

As well as items excavated from the UNESCO-listed sites of Stonehenge and Avebury, highlights include the ruins of Bush Barrow, a Bronze Age burial mound; priceless gold and amber items that date back over 4,000 years; and a sizable collection of historic art.
