Great stone grave Uthlede

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The large stone grave in Uthlede was a megalithic grave complex of the Neolithic funnel beaker culture near Uthlede , a town in Hagen in the Bremen district of Cuxhaven in Lower Saxony . It was destroyed in the 19th or early 20th century. It had eight wall stones and three cap stones, so it must have been a large dolmen or a passage grave.
