If you actually find yourself in small town Alliance, Nebraska you should stop - there's not much to do there anyway. Sure it's bunch of old clunkers stacked up to resemble the actual Stonehenge, but this is fun, you can actually get up close, climb on the cars (I did anyway), touch them, and there's other art to look at...

As other reviewers have stated, you shouldn't make a special trip, but if you happen to be driving through northwestern Nebraska, do stop. It's free, but there is a modest, clean giftshop on site if you'd like to support the maintenance of the site through the purchase of a soda, postcard or tshirt or simply make an outright donation.

National unusal attraction- But pretty much what you see in the picture is exactly what there is. Great to catch "on your way" to another place, but would not recommedn it as your final destination! The area is a relaxing prarie if you feel like REALLY getting away from it all! More

What can you say about an attraction that stands for so much? This is truly a work of art in the fact that it uses three dimensional monoliths in the form of cars to depict another international attraction. The monotones of the "henge" are superb to photograph against the panoramic skies of Nebraska and in every season. The sculpture is... More

We visited Carhenge while driving between Denver and Hot Springs, South Dakota. It wasn't directly on our route, but looked like an interesting place for a short break. There were only a couple of other people around. We took a look at the stacked cars and the other exhibits made of car parts. It is free, and worth a quick... More

This was a fun quick stop. Besides the Carhenge reconstruction there are some other things made out of machinery parts. Fun place to get out and walk a bit. More

They have used car parts to make a dinosaur, chime and a fish. They have stacked cars on other cars' bumpers and then created a circle to of course look like stonehenge. Not sure I would have gone out of my way to see it, but it was fun place to stretch the legs. More
