Supported by our 3 Star visitor experience, we welcome thousands of visitors each year to one of the best preserved prehistoric monuments in Europe.īrowse our fantastic range of Hebridean treats and gift ideas. We are a charity in the Isle of Lewis, dedicated to the heritage and archaeology of Calanais and the Outer Hebrides. Whilst it was most likely an astronomical observatory and a place of ritual activity, we invite you to visit us and uncover the mystery for yourself. The Calanais Standing Stones (or Callanish in its anglicised form) is a cruciform shaped stone circle, erected 5000 years and standing the elemental weather of the Outer Hebrides, there is much mystery surrounding their inception. Located in the west coast of Lewis, the 5,000 year old Callanish Stones are famous all over the world.
