Wanna Gravenberg

Wanna Gravenberg submitted by Andreas on 6th Oct 2010. The overgrown barrow seen from the Southeast.
According to a local legend it's said that a Graf (= Count or Earl) von Süderleda was burried in the barrow.
However the barrow's name (probably meaning Gräberberg = "Graves Mountain") seems to be older than the legend. I suppose the name actually relates to the large urn cemetery around the barrow.

Wanna Huegelgrab 6 submitted by Andreas on 6th Oct 2010. Distant view, approximately from SouthSouthwest, to the overgrown barrow.
The meadow between the road (Postweg) and the barrow usually is frequented by model airplanes, with the result that my visit almost caused a panic among their pilots.
Especially the local groundsman was (loudly) concerned about my health, shouting something about danger and past accidents.
But obviously the missiles have missed me ...

The reconstruction shows a "5 yokes-chamber", consisting of 5 capstones, 10 supporting stones at the long sides and 2 further uprights at the narrow sides.
