Prehistoric monuments, coastal landscapes, and ancient heritage in Orkney

The Heart of Neolithic Orkney UNESCO World Heritage Site brings together a collection of prehistoric monuments across Orkney, including Skara Brae, Maeshowe, the Ring of Brodgar, and the Stones of Stenness. Dating back more than 5,000 years, these sites form one of the most important prehistoric landscapes in Europe and provide insight into some of the earliest farming communities in the British Isles.

Located within the landscapes of Mainland Orkney and connected to routes linking the islands' coastlines, settlements, and historic sites, the site forms part of a wider network of places shaped by thousands of years of human activity. The Heart of Neolithic Orkney links ancient monuments, coastal landscapes, and archaeological heritage across one of Scotland's most significant UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
