Skara Brae Neolithic Village & Visitor Centre
Highlight • Historical Site
Visitors can get a vivid impression of the reality of a prehistoric settlement and see old houses equipped with stone beds, dressers and chairs. A replica construction allows visitors to fully understand the interior of a prehistoric house.
An informative visitor center offers touchscreen presentations, fact-finding quizzes for kids and adults, and a chance to see artifacts discovered during archaeological digs in the 1970s.
There is also a café (which may have limited hours during the winter) and a gift shop selling locally made souvenirs and crafts.
