The megalithic grave Weseby was a Neolithic grave complex close to the district Weseby the community Hürup , Office Hürup in Schleswig-Flensburg , in Schleswig-Holstein .
description
The grave was located northeast of Weseby, directly on the railway line from Flensburg to Kiel on the Grimstein hill. More precise information is only possible thanks to Pastor Harries' description from the 1830s. The grave was therefore in a round hill. Which type it belonged to can no longer be determined. The burial chamber had two cap stones, the number of wall stones is unknown. Ernst Sprockhoff lists the grave under number 32 in his Atlas of Germany's Megalithic Tombs.
