The long bed Krausort or long bed Kronsteinberg is a Neolithic long bed or large stone grave in the community of Großenbrode in the Ostholstein district in Schleswig-Holstein . It is located near the Baltic Sea in the extreme northeast of Wagrien in a field about 600 meters west of the B 207 ( E 47 ) just before the Fehmarnsund Bridge .

The long bed, heavily overgrown with bushes and trees and not accessible by any path, runs in a north-south direction and is about 10 m wide and 100 m long, making it one of the longest in Germany. There is a guardian stone at its north end .

The long bed was protected as a natural monument on November 19, 1938 , since protection with the instruments of monument protection was not possible at the time, and it is now also a listed building. In the "Atlas of Germany's Megalithic Tombs" the long bed is listed as "Sprockhoff 268". The megalithic system of the funnel beaker culture (TBK) was created between 3500 and 2800 BC. Chr.
