The large stone grave Dellbrück (also called Dellbrücker Kammer ) is a megalithic grave complex of the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Dellbrück , a district of Bargenstedt in the Dithmarschen district ( Schleswig-Holstein ). It bears the Sprockhoff number 152. Shortly before 1850 and again in 1917, excavations took place, but no publications are available.
location
The grave is on the eastern outskirts of Dellbrück in a wood on Eckschapp street. There is one way to get there. 4 km to the east is the large stone grave Tensbüttel .
description
The complex originally had a round mound that is no longer preserved today. According to Ernst Sprockhoff, a stone wreath attached to the grave is modern . Only the burial chamber remains from the original complex, but it is in a very good state of preservation. It is a north-south oriented extended dolmen with a length of 2.5 m and a width of 1.7 m. The chamber consists of two pairs of wall stones on the long sides, a closing stone on the southern narrow side, two stones on the northern narrow side and two cap stones. The access to the chamber is on the north side. Originally there was a narrow stone in the eastern half that reached to the capstone and a half-high, pointed stone in the western half. Sprockhoff found the chamber in this condition when he was admitted in 1934. Later the eastern stone was removed and placed in front of the chamber and the western stone was moved so that it now occupies the entire narrow side.
