There it stands—massive, stoic, and shrouded in mystery. On the rolling Salisbury Plain in southern England, Stonehenge rises like an ancient riddle etched into stone. It’s one of the most iconic monuments in the world, yet no one can fully explain why it was built, who exactly built it, or how those massive stones got there.

When you hear “war museum,” your mind probably jumps to tanks, guns, and military maps—and yes, the Imperial War Museum (IWM) in London has all of that. But spend just a little time inside its massive stone walls, and you'll discover something deeper. This isn't just a gallery of old weapons. It's a living archive of human struggle, resilience, and the strange ripple effects of global conflict.
