Country: Germany (Lower Saxony, Bremen)
Visited: Yes on 13th May 2021. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 3
Bremervoerde Huegelgrab Plietenberg submitted by CharcoalBurner89 on 13th May 2021. According to Dr. Tempel the tumulus is 21 meters wide and 1.6 meters high.
Professional excavations have not yet taken place. However, in 1858, the geometer Kropp determined that a stone circle runs on the tumulus, which is bisected by a 58 cm wide stone pavement. Nothing comparable is known so far.

Log Text: There are some very well preserved tumuli here. An information board also provides further information. The signage is also good, only the way to the site is rather difficult; so you should either walk a little longer or bring a good car.

Log Text: Unfortunately, the area is heavily overgrown and the individual graves in the forest are badly damaged, looted or covered by rubbish most of the time. The tumuli can, however, still be clearly recognized (although they are not very high).
Some of the tumuli can be reached easily, others require a longer walk.
