Makes Stonehenge great again! Stonewatchers believe they may have seen Donald Trump’s face in one of the memorial’s ancient pillars
- Visitors to Stonehenge were stunned by an image of the former US president
- The historic UNESCO World Heritage Site was formed thousands of years ago
The face of Donald Trump has seemingly appeared in one of Stonehenge’s ancient pillars.
Avid rock watchers think they’ve seen the face of the former US president, 77, at the 4,500-year-old monument.
It is thought that the ancients who built Stonehenge around 2500 BC believed the stones had magical properties.
But the site may now have taken on a new meaning, with the eerie appearance of the politician’s face at the center.
Trump’s face appears on one of the 13-foot-tall, 25-ton vertical stones on the north side.

If you look closely at the stone, you can make out Trump’s furrowed brow and open mouth as he appears to be giving a speech.
The UNESCO World Heritage Site in Wiltshire is one of the most famous landmarks in the United Kingdom, attracting nearly 850,000 visitors annually, according to English Heritage.
The first monument of Stonehenge was built about 5000 years ago, while the stone circle was built around 2500 BC.
The huge artificial circle of stones is one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments.
But there’s still a lot of mystery surrounding why it was built in the first place — with scientists back in June throwing cold water at the popular theory that it was used as a solar calendar to keep track of the days of the year.
His “appearance” in the stones is likely a dream come true for Trump, who had previously envisioned himself as a figure on Mount Rushmore.
In 2020, he tweeted that it “sounds like a good idea” to see himself added to the memorial alongside Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt, based on the “many things” he believes he has accomplished.
However, Mount Rushmore officials say there is no more “carvable space” on the rock, dashing his hopes of becoming the fifth figure.

Trump will go on trial in Georgia on electoral fraud charges.
On Thursday, Trump pleaded not guilty to attempting to undermine Georgia’s 2020 election results.
A week earlier, he posed for his historic mug shot, which went viral on social media for his frowning and posed facial expression.
The date for the trial has not yet been set, but could be getting closer now that he is running for re-election.
