Floor plan of a round dysentery, here with an off-center chamber

The two round dyssers from Hjortegårdene (also known as Distriktet Skoven) are located in the north of the Hornsherred peninsula near Frederikssund on the Danish island of Zealand . The two megalithic systems from the Neolithic Age were built by the people of the Funnel Beaker Culture (TBK) between 3500 and 2800 BC. Built in BC. The curbs of both circular dysers are hardly preserved (Dysse 2).

Runddysse 1

The almost free-standing polygonal chamber of the polygonal pole stands in the middle of the remnants of the round hill. Five bearing stones, two gangway stones, several threshold stones and the cap stone have been preserved.

Runddysse 2

About 50 m away, a little eccentrically in the hill, there is a recessed rectangular column made of four bearing stones and a capstone. The roughly 1.8 m high, slightly oval hill measures around 15.0 × 14.0 m.

There are a large number of Neolithic tombs nearby, including three passage tombs (Hjortegårdene Jættestue 1 -3). Passage grave 3 by Hjortegårdene is well preserved .
