Carhenge, seems to be in the middle of no where in Alliance, Nebraska. It was built during the 1980’s utilizing vintage cars, which are all painted gray to look “stone like”.  Each car is placed in a manner that it replicates Stonehenge, consisting of the circle of cars, 3 standing trilithons within the circle, the heel stone, slaughter stone, and 2 station stones. It also includes a “Car Art Preserve” with sculptures made from a variety of cars and car parts. There is a small store and museum of sorts on the property to purchase some amazing photos, magnets and other memorabilia.
