Log Text: Located right next to a large industrial area, this megalithic tomb has also survived the centuries. Easy to reach, but only before sowing because of the lack of a path.
Luedelsen Steingrab 6

Site Type: Long Barrow

Luedelsen Steingrab 6 submitted by Martin_L on 5th Oct 2009. July 2009. Just before the excavation started. View East along the southern long side. While the western and eastern chamber parts are well preserved, the capstones of the central part are out of place. The "P" marks the location of the lateral entrance passage. The kerbstones of the enclosure are well preserved, but often moved out of place by the floating (caused by erosion) earthwork.

Luedelsen Steingrab 3 submitted by Martin_L on 5th Oct 2009. July 2009. The site was examined in 2007. The chamber was completely removed under excavation and later reconstructed. Unfortunately it was filled with sand, so it is impossible to get an internal view.

Mehmke Steingrab 2 submitted by holger_rix on 6th Nov 2009. Chamber with three pairs of uprights on the long sides, rectangle shape 4m x 1.4m.
Five of the eight orthostats remain and three capstones.
But almost all these stones have been moved or are out of place, so the tomb gives the impression of just a pile of big stones.

Molmke Steingrab submitted by holger_rix on 30th Oct 2009. 1.4km west of the small village Molmke, south of Diesdorf, not far from Diesdorf Steingrab 3, there is another typical 'Altmark Grossdolmen' with enclosure.
And same as the other barrows in the area, the enclosure has two oversized guardian stones in the corners of the south-east end.
Unfortunately the NW part of the enclosure is missing.
Thats exactly where the comparative well preserved chamber is located.
There is something unusual about this chamber.
It has a trapezoid shape, ...
