A new 27-million-pound-visitor centre is set to open at Stonehenge on December 18.
The visitor centre has a lightweight roof supported by 211 narrow steel columns, which shelter a glass box holding the cafe and shop, and a chestnut timber-covered box that holds the displays, the Guardian reported.
The exhibition also has a 360-degree projection that is based on minutely detailed laser scans of the stones, and some original finds that are on loan from the museums at Salisbury and Devizes.
The opening exhibition will also have Bronze Age gold, which are among the greatest treasures of the Devizes museum.
