No one knows for sure. Various theories have been proposed, but it on a prehistoric site, the builders had no written language. The most widely suggested uses are as an astronomical calendar, a site for religious worship, or involving ritual healing (or a combination of these). Its religious significance may be related to the nearby River Avon.

However, there is little or no hard evidence to verify any of these claims.

(For how it was designed and built, see related link)

According to a recent 6-year archaeological dig, scientists believe that Stonehenge was built as a monument for the dead (there are cremated remains in holes circling it). But unless someone invents a time machine, no one can know for certain!
That is a question that historians are having a lot of trouble with. No one really knows
Actually know one knows. It was built in between 2000 BC-2500 BC (That's pretty old). It is in Wiltshire, so it was probably built in Europe or something. I read in a newspaper that a group of people are investigating it more now, but it might take years even. Many archaeologists have come up with various theories, but no one has real evidence, so the mystery might as well remain unsolved. The Stonehenge is really interesting and if you want to know more, here are some websites:

Actually no one knows how or WHO even made the Stonehenge. If you know who "they" is when you asked me then I'll probably figure it out! :)

Archaeologists are still arguing about this one but they are agreed that it was built around 4500 years ago.
