Sundby Dolmen

The Sundby dolmen is one between 3500 and 2800 BC. Megalithic system of the funnel beaker culture (TBK) that was created in BC . It is located in a small lawn on a round hill plowed on all sides, about 15.0 m in diameter and 1.0 m high on Dyssenvænget ( German  Dolmenweg ) in the residential development of Sundby on Lolland in Denmark .

The north-south oriented rectangular pole with a recessed side stone and an inclined corridor consists of six supporting stones of the chamber and three of the corridor. A capstone rests over the end of the aisle and the front chamber area. Two more stones, which could be fragments of the missing capstone, lie behind the chamber, the length of which is 2.25 m and a width of about 1.35 m.
