Log Text: Definite recommendation from me to visit this museum. It is simply impressive both in terms of the type of exhibition and the technical (and flawless) scope. The large number of rune stones drew me here and I ended up in the museum for over 3 hours!

Log Text: Wonderful museum that houses Denmark's most famous bog body: Tollund Man. Absolute visit recommendation! There is also a small prehistoric exhibition that has nothing to do with the bog body.

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.

Log Text: Totally in love with this site as the ambiance is so beautiful. If it hadn't been so windy, I would definitely have stayed longer. The grave is well preserved as a dolmen, although the tumulus can still be seen to some extent.

Ildbjerg Langdysse submitted by Martin_L on 31st May 2010. Scan from old diapositive (sorry for quality) showing the very impressive site from the NE. The capstone of the southern chamber is clearly visible. The northern chamber is to the right of it, but less obvious as the capstone is robbed. As at similar sites the kerb-stones of the narrow sides are significantly larger. June 1992

Log Text: Very well preserved. However, this can only be achieved if the field is not currently being planted. Otherwise a really impressively well-preserved long barrow.

Log Text: Note from me: The completion of a new building is currently planned for the year 2030. The museum may be open to the public for another 1-2 years before the new building begins. So if you don't want to wait, you should plan your visit now or wait for the reopening (which should be more impressive).
