description
The megalithic complex with an east-west oriented trapezoidal boggy bed with a transverse chamber has a length of about 30 m. Numerous stones are missing from the giant bed . The north side can still be seen relatively well, the course of the south side can still be reconstructed using individual stones. The large guardian stones at the eastern end of the barren bed are striking . When Sprockhoff took the picture in 1931, no chamber was recognizable and the entire system was hidden under bushes. The excavation of Ewald Schuldt uncovered the chamber of the Großdolmen in 1969. There are three bearing stones each on the eastern and western long sides and the northern keystone. The south end of the chamber, where the entrance to the porch was, is somewhat disturbed. Two cap stones of the chamber are on top, a third is missing. The complex seems to have originally been located in the round hill, which was later built over by the barren bed.
