Great stone grave Groß Ellenberg

The large stone grave Groß Ellenberg was a megalithic burial complex of the Neolithic funnel cup culture near Groß Ellenberg , a district of Suhlendorf in the district of Uelzen ( Lower Saxony ). It was destroyed in the 19th century. The grave was located southeast of the village on the south side of today's B 71 . It 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 .
