description

The east-west oriented, approximately 12.5 m long and 7.1 by 4.5 m wide, trapezoidal barn bed (with four non-parallel sides) is well preserved. Of the original 21, only five curbs are missing. The 1.4 m high, 2.8 m long and 1.5 m wide transverse chamber is located near the wider eastern end of the megalithic bed. It has two or three supporting stones on the long sides. The northern capstone is in situ , the second is missing. In the south was the entrance from which no stone has been preserved. A guard stone placed in the north of the megalithic bed in front of the broad side had overturned and received 49 bowls in a lying position during the Bronze Age . It was erected again during the reconstruction carried out in 1968 by Adolf Hollnagel (1907–1975). One of the stones in the border also has nine bowls. The floorboard consisted of annealed flint and clay screed that had been red-annealed through firing .

The facility was reused by the carriers of the spherical amphora culture . The finds consisted of bones and 54 shards of four cross-cutters , two flat hatchets, two amber beads , two spherical amphoras, two bowls, a spherical bowl, a hammer , a chisel, a blade and a rock ax.
