Bryn Celli Ddu (‘Mound in the Dark’) is one of Anglesey’s most famous prehistoric landmarks. The great thing is, you can actually walk inside and through this neolithic burial chamber. However, to see Bryn Celli Ddu’s most striking feature, you have to be there on the summer solstice. As the sun rises, light shines directly down the tomb’s passageway to illuminate the chamber within.

Remember that scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark where Indiana Jones directs a beam of light through a chamber to show the location of the ark? This is where that happens for real. This prehistoric
burial chamber was also used to chart the turn of the seasons, and around the time of the summer
solstice (longest day), sunlight is funnelled through the front door into a single beam, illuminating the
mysterious standing stone at the heart of the chamber.

The hill started in the dark grove 5,000 years ago as a ritual enclosure, the only one (!) Aligned to the rising sun on the longest day of the year!
