Maryhill Museum of Art says Stonehenge Memorial, the iconic replica of England’s ancient original, has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.  Located three miles east of the museum on a bluff above the Columbia River, Stonehenge Memorial was constructed by Maryhill Museum of Art’s founder Samuel Hill between 1918 and 1929.   Stonehenge Memorial is significant as both a close replica of ancient Stonehenge and as a memorial to Klickitat County men who died in World War I.  Although he clearly supported the Allied cause, Hill was a Quaker and a pacifist.  In constructing the memorial, he wished to honor soldiers who gave their lives to what he saw as the folly of war and make a public statement about the tragedy and futility of the events that led to their deaths.  With its altar stone dedicated on July 4, 1918, more than four months prior to armistice, Stonehenge Memorial is among the earliest World War I memorials in the country.
