The dolmen in Kobbelskov von Skelde (also called Koppelskov von Skelle ) in Broagerland are located near the Baltic Sea at Skelde, in the extreme south of Jutland in Denmark . The five better preserved dolmens are long and round dysses that are located in two groups in close proximity in the forest. In addition, there is the indeterminable remainder of another dolmen. The dolmens were built between 3500 and 2800 BC. BC as megalithic systems of the funnel beaker culture (TBK).

Langdysse 1

The approximately 1.5 m high mound bed of the east-west oriented Langdolmen is approximately 18 m long and 8.0 m wide. Of the curbs, 5 on the east, three on the west, 14 on the south and 12 on the north side have been preserved. In the center, as a parallel lay-up, is the 1.4 m long and 0.75 m wide rectangular chamber of an ancient dolmen without a capstone. It consists of two stones on each long side and one on the narrow sides. About 4.0 m from the western end of the enclosure is a stone that belongs to another chamber.

To the west is a 1.6 m long and 0.8 m wide chamber with a capstone. It consists of two stones on each long side and one on the narrow sides. About 3.0 m east of the complete chamber, which is an archetypal or rectangular dolmen , are the remains of a second chamber, six stones of the same size as the western chamber.

The approximately 0.75 m high hill of the Round Dolm is about 8.0 m in diameter. In its center there is an approximately 1.5 m long and 1.0 m wide north-south oriented chamber consisting of two bearing stones on each long side, and one stone each in the north and south. A capstone lies over the northern half of the chamber. A broken stone lies next to the west side. Location 54 ° 51 ′ 4.6 ″  N , 9 ° 45 ′ 25.2 ″  E
