The large stone grave Blengow (also called Vossberg) with the Sprockhoff no. 329 is located east of Blengow near Rerik in the northwest of the Rostock district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania .
The large stone grave of an unknown type is severely disturbed. It is a huge bed in which there was a transverse (transverse lying) chamber. Eight stones of the eastern and two of the western long sides have been preserved. The width of the barren bed can be given as 5.7 meters. E. Sprockhoff does not mention any preserved stones in the chamber. However, a bearing stone and capstone can currently be seen on the hill. Apparently they were found during excavations.
E. Sprockhoff considered the northernmost stone on the eastern long side to be the corner stone of the associated narrow side. The stone has a few bowls on its smooth surface and seven engraved wheel crosses 15–20 cm in diameter; three are easily recognizable. The wheel crosses are considered Bronze Age symbols that are usually found on the capstones. It is therefore conceivable that the engraved stone is a relocated cap stone of the chamber.
