The Maryhill Stonehenge Memorial is a full-scale concrete replica located in Maryhill, Washington, overlooking the Columbia River Gorge. Commissioned by entrepreneur Sam Hill and completed in 1929, it was built as the nation's first monument dedicated to local soldiers who died in World War I.
Unlike the weathered original in England, this version depicts what Stonehenge would have looked like intact, constructed from poured concrete textured to resemble hand-hewn stone. It features a complete outer ring of sarsen stones with lintels, an inner horseshoe of trilithons, and an altar stone aligned with the summer solstice sunrise.
