description

The megalithic bed without a chamber is only 15 m long (the Stralendorf facility is 125 m long) about 6.5 m wide, rectangular, northwest-southeast oriented megalithic bed that has been deprived of many of its 49 boulders . 10 stones of the northeast and 12 stones of the southwest side and one stone of the southeast side have been preserved. More than two dozen curbs went out. The system lies on a slightly inclined surface. Inside there is a very eccentric stone tub, over three meters long, in which the burial was deposited. The tub is in the natural ground below the hill. The stone grave was excavated by Ewald Schuldt in 1966 .
