D53 Havelterberg submitted by Sunflowerbird on 10th Mar 2005. D53 Havelteberg
The two Havelteberg monuments are a long way west from the string of hunebedden between Emmen and Assen. But they're worth a detour!
D54 and D53 are within 400ms of each other in sandy heathland.
D53 is a moster hunebed in superb shape and even has its portal stones.
