The stone box of variety Enge is on Sorteengevejen between Nylars and Arnager on the Danish island of Bornholm .

The large east-west-oriented stone box ( Danish Hellekiste ) is located on the road against an approximately 2.0 m long and 1.4 m wide boulder, which forms the end stone on a narrow side. The stone box is 2.8 m long and 1.2 m wide and consists of four heavy sandstone slabs on each side. Two side stones protrude over the transverse slab at the other end by 0.6 m. The side stones are about 0.5 m high. The upper part of the three southeastern side stones was destroyed in the past. The bottom of the box is covered with smaller, flat stone slabs. The capstone is missing. A hill is not recognizable.
