The Nasseröd dolmen ( Swedish Nasseröd Döser - RAÄ Svenneby 117: 1 and 118: 1) are located in the Nasseröd forest, east of Slotteberget, north of Svenneby in Bohuslän in Sweden . The dolmen ( Swedish Döser ) were built between 3500 and 2800 BC. Erected by the carriers of the funnel beaker culture (TBK).

In the round cairn of Svenneby 117: 1, which measures approximately 10.0 m, is the northwest-southeast oriented pentagonal chamber of a polygonal hollow of about 2.5 × 2.0 m. The large, roughly rectangular capstone is broken in half.

Most of the curb stones have been preserved on the 10 m long hill of Svenneby 118: 1, also known as “Påls Hus”, and a round capstone about 2.0 m in diameter is in the middle; next to it is a large single upright stone.
