Marienborn Opferstein
Trip No.46 Entry No.3 Date Added: 26th Oct 2020
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: Germany (Saxony-Anhalt)
Visited: Yes on 9th Sep 2020. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 4 Access 3
Marienborn Opferstein submitted by AlexHunger on 2nd Oct 2005. Marienborn Opferstein, in Sachsen-Anhalt. 3 stones of this unrestored Alee Couverte are isible. Little research was done here on account of the proximity to the former Iron Curtain located just to the west. There are further tumuli to the south east, which are also not excavated.
This stone is unusual on account of the 2 bucket sized indentations, which led the stone to be named "Sacrifice Stone".

Marienborn Menhir

Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Germany (Saxony-Anhalt)
Visited: Yes on 9th Sep 2020. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 4 Access 5
Marienborn Menhir submitted by AlexHunger on 26th Oct 2004. This Menhir stands in the center of the small pilgrimage town of Marienborn, about 12 Km east of Helmstedt in Saxony. I am not certain if it is original, but it would be proba-bly that it has been moved at some point as there once was quite a lot of building in and around the monastery and orangerie that represent the center of town. There are quite a few sites scattered around this small town, which I was not able to visit due to logistics constraints: Teufelsgrund (Devil’s Ground), Opferstei...

Site Type: Chambered Tomb

Visited: Yes on 1st Sep 2020. My rating: Condition 2 Ambience 2 Access 4
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, ...
