Stone box from Bøjden Salmager

The stone box of Bøjden Salmager (also called Bøjgden) is about 70 m away from the Bøjden Dyssekammer in Horne Land , southeast of Bøjden in the southwest of the Danish island of Fyn .

The slightly trapezoidal, northwest-southeast-oriented, non-recessed Steinkiste ( Danish Light box ) consists of three very massive (about 1.5 x 2.0 m measured) in situ located boulders , the large threshold stone in the southeast and about 3.7 × 2.5 × 2.5 m measuring, rolled capstone with about 45 bowls , which lies next to the chamber. It is about 1.8 m long and 0.65 to 0.90 m wide and is one of the most outstanding stone boxes because of the enormous stone sizes.
