Enter a world of Knights in Shining Armor where the legend of Camelot comes to life. Mythical creatures as well as Knights in Shining Armor stroll the grounds while Fairies flit about the great Standing Stones. Around the Standing Stones of Foamhenge you will find fluttering flags and the festive tentage of Merchants offering wares from mystical lands and times as well as the excitement of history made reality as Living History exhibitors display life in the Middle Ages.

Smell the luscious aroma of roasted meats, tasty breads and delicious treats, hear the laughter, music and merriment that does abound. Nearby may be heard the enchanting sounds of Minstrels, the sight of colorful Dancers and the clash of steel as Knights do battle to the cheers of yon thrilled onlookers!

Tents lay within the shadow of Foamhenge with gifts, garb and wonders galore. Children of all ages are invited to play imaginative Games such as Ratapult, Tic Tac Toad, Sheep Toss, Dragon Attack, Gargoyle Golf, Unicorn Ring Toss, Boar Hunt, Dragon Droppings and Pole Jousting.

Stonehenge has inspired awe and mystery from visitors for over 5000 years. This megalithic ruin has withstood the tests of time and captivated our imagination.

Mark Cline of the Enchanted Castle Studios has sculpted a full size replica of Stonehenge on the property of the Natural Bridge of Virginia made entirely of foam.

It is located on the west side of Rt. 11 near the Natural Bridge Zoo, 1 mile north of Natural Bridge.

Admission $5 per person or free with any Natural Bridge attractions ticket.
