GROSSBRITANNIEN STONEHENGE SONNENWENDE
Dawn on Midsummer's Day. Midsummer's Day, June 24th, used to be the day when you could see a very old custom at Stonehenge, in Wiltshire, England. Nowadays the celebrations have been moved to June 21st, the longest day of the year. Stonehenge is one of Europe's biggest stone circles. A lot of stones are ten or twelve metres high. The earliest part of Stonehenge is nearly 5,000 years old. It is thought that the Druids used Stonehenge for a calendar. Every June 21st a lot of them go to Stonehenge. This day is usually the actual day when the sun is at its most northerly point and hence "the longest day". 2004 (KEYSTONE/CAMERA PRESS/Martin Godwin / G/M) === ===
