The passage grave near Kampen is a Neolithic barrow / large stone grave in the municipality of Kampen (Sylt) in the district of North Friesland in Schleswig-Holstein . In Ernst Sprockhoff's "Atlas of Germany's Megalithic Tombs" the passage grave is referred to as Sprockhoff no. "1" led. The megalithic system of the funnel beaker culture (TBK) was created between 3500 and 2800 BC. And was scientifically examined by R. Knorr in 1915. The passage grave is a form of Neolithic megalithic systems, which consists of a chamber and a structurally separated, lateral passage. This form is primarily found in Denmark, Germany and Scandinavia, as well as occasionally in France and the Netherlands.
The small, oval passage grave , which is only not a polygonal pole because it has two instead of one capstone, is located on the edge of the dune belt, about 40 m west of the Westerweg. All seven bearing stones and two cap stones of the chamber (one has broken through) as well as a short corridor have been preserved . The corridor in the south-westerly direction consisted of two pairs of girders, a bearing stone and the cap stones are missing here. The remains of a hill have not been preserved.
