Impressive grave made of thick boulders from the Neolithic period. According to the information board, the stones were probably pulled over snow in winter. With 100 helpers, the grave took almost 3 months to complete.

This is probably what the megalithic tombs must have looked like in the past. Anyone who dares can crawl inside. A flashlight is very helpful.
