Log Text: The grave is badly damaged, but easy to find due to the nearby second grave. However, it was very overgrown when I visited.
Heine Steingrab 2
Date Added: 23rd Apr 2021
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: Germany (Lower Saxony, Bremen)
Visited: Yes on 23rd Apr 2021. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 5 Access 3
Heine Steingrab 2 submitted by Martin_L on 11th Jan 2008. Heine Tomb 2 (Sprockhoff No. 626)
The southend of the chamber.
Most likely the two southernmost uprights on the western- and eastern chamberside were removed in historic times. So there is some evidence, that the large southern capstone was originally placed on 5 uprights. In general this is a rare feature in this area but there is another example in the neighbourhood (Lehnstedt, Tomb 1, Sprockhoff No. 621).

Log Text: A really beautiful dolmen even if it is heavily overgrown. There is no direct path to reach it, so you have to find a route through the forest via GPS.

Stueh Grabhuegelgruppe submitted by CharcoalBurner89 on 12th Mar 2021. The bronze age barrow cemetery is largely overgrown by natural plants and forestry management. The tumuli are extremely difficult to find and hardly visible in wood because they are not very high.

Ohrensen Steingrab submitted by Martin_L on 15th Jun 2010. Looking along the southern long-side (from a height of approx. 6m). The two “x” mark the ends of the remains of this large chambered and kerbed long-barrow measuring 48m by 7m . The chamber was located near the centre (marked with “C”).
To get an impression how the site originally looked compare with similar sites in Germany and Denmark in better condition. For example: Kleinenkneter Steine , Karlsminde , Grønsalen
While the earthwork of the western part is comparatively well pr...

Horneburg Langbett 4 submitted by Martin_L on 27th Apr 2010. The chamber of the kerbed long-barrow viewed from above (pole aerial)
As usual the orthostats are slightly inclined towards the chamber, but due to erosion of the earthwork the eastern chamber endstones' inclination increased significantly. The capstones C2 and C3 are robbed otherwise the chamber is well preserved. Especially the western third of the chamber and the passage section are in very good condition. April 2010
