Stapelstein
Date Added: 20th Aug 2022
Site Type: Cist
Country: Germany (Lower Saxony, Bremen)
Visited: Yes on 20th Aug 2022. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 4
Stapelstein submitted by Martin_L on 8th May 2015. From the SE. Photo taken May 2015. The site consists of an eroded round barrow-like structure with what appears to be the remains of a bronze-age (?) stone-cist situated on top of it. Some minor stones visibleat the edges of the barrow. According to historic reports the site has been excavated and damaged in historic times. At least an excavation in 1877 is recorded, but it revealed no grave goods.
What we see today most probably does not represent the original arrangement of the stones. ...

Log Text: The solar observatory has been reconstructed impressively well. Perhaps not as impressive in terms of monumental dimensions as the ring sanctuary in Pömmelte. But a visit at the winter or summer solstice should definitely be worth the journey.
