The large stone graves at Bokel were several (probably seven) megalithic graves of the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Bokel , a district of Beverstedt in the district of Cuxhaven ( Lower Saxony ). They were destroyed in the late 19th or early 20th century. Their existence is only proven by several signatures on a measuring table sheet. On both sides of the road from Bokel to Bramstedt, there are six graves immediately east of the former school and another grave a little further east. No further information is available on the orientation, dimensions and type of grave.
