Date Added: 27th Sep 2022
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: Denmark (Midtjylland)
Visited: Yes on 24th Sep 2022. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 4
Stenvad 50 Kroner Dysse submitted by Martin_L on 8th Apr 2008. The northeastern chamber is quite picturesque.
It is one of Denmarks most famous megalithic tombs: It even was depicted on the 50 kroner-banknote. Some barrow kerbstones are also visible on this picture [April 1992]. Scan from old diapositive, sorry for bad quality.

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.
On the photo you can see the tumulus located northeast (exact location: Latitude: 53.45813N, Longitude: 9.24708E).
