Great stone graves near Groß Lieder
The megalithic graves near Groß Liedern were three megalithic graves from the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Groß Liedern , a district of Uelzen in the Uelzen district ( Lower Saxony ). They were destroyed in the 19th century. A grave was located south-southwest of the place; immediately to the north was a burial mound . Graves 2 and 3 were east of Groß Liedern in the middle of a group of burial mounds. The large stone graves were documented in the 1840s by Georg Otto Carl von Estorff , but not described in detail. No information is available on the orientation, dimensions and type of grave. The only thing that emerges from the card signatures is that they all had rectangular barren beds .
