The megalithic graves at Tramstow were several megalithic tombs of an unknown type from the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Tramstow , a district of Postlow in the district of Vorpommern-Greifswald ( Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania ). They were probably destroyed in the 19th or early 20th century. Their existence is only recorded through the signature “Hünengräber” on a measuring table sheet. At the corresponding point, there are six hills southeast of Tramstow and north of Bundesstraße 199 . In other places in the area around Tramstow there are further mounds, but they are not labeled, so that it is unclear whether these are more large stone graves , burial mounds or natural elevations.
