description
Grave 1
This complex has an approximately east-west oriented rectangular barren bed with a length of about 100 m. At the beginning of the 20th century, Sophus Müller was able to determine some of the surrounding stones and the extraction pits for other stones. In 1934 Ernst Sprockhoff only found the mound, but no more preserved surrounding stones. A burial chamber could not be made out.
Grave 2
This complex has a huge bed, the dimensions of which cannot be determined with certainty. At the beginning of the 20th century, Sophus Müller was able to identify some of the surrounding stones. In 1934 Ernst Sprockhoff found only a flat, short earth ridge without any enclosure. A burial chamber could not be made out.
