Great stone grave Gerdau

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The large stone grave Gerdau was a megalithic burial complex of the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Gerdau in the district of Uelzen ( Lower Saxony ). It was destroyed in the 19th century. The grave was north of the village on the west side of a dirt road. Immediately to the west was a burial mound , a little further northwest near Groß Süstedt a second. The large stone grave was documented in the 1840s by Georg Otto Carl von Estorff , but was already destroyed at that time and could therefore not be described in more detail. No information is available on the orientation, dimensions and type of grave. The signature of the card only shows that it had a rectangular barren bed .
