Log Text: Now, this is what you really call a long barrow. What a giant! Signposted from road 323 from Orbaek to Ringe. Lots of parking space.
It is 168 metres long. One burial chamber is visible, the capstone is missing. The dolmen was constructed as a burial place for the leaders of society in the early neolithic, 3500-3100 BC.

Log Text: Now, this is a real megalithic treat. There are 5 chambers on this monument. Four are more or less in line, the eastern one is located to the north of that line.
Easy to find on road 323 from Orbaek to Ringe. You can park your car on the side of the road.

Log Text: Signposted from road 323 Orbaek - Ringe. Small parking place available. Impressive ruins, although far from prehistoric. The footpath giving a good view over the Voldsted (not the access path) was completely destroyed by woodmen.

Martofte Estershøj Jættestue submitted by holger_rix on 3rd Aug 2011. Jættestue (Passage Grave) near Odense
Round Barrow with enclosed Passage Grave on a hilltop near the baltic coastline.
The tomb was excavated in 1880.
They found remains of 10 skeletons, especially the heads, probably everyone in the
chamber in a sitting position.

Log Text: On road 315 from Kerteminde to Fyns Hoved turn right in Martofte into the Søvej. After 300 meter the road bends to the right. On the left side you will find a destroyed information board and a unpaved road. No real parking place. Walk a hundred meters, then turn right at a still existing sign. After 200 meters the site is on your left, across the fields.
Not easy to reach in the summer through the fields, a bit overgrown. You would expect that this Jaettestue and Marhøj one would be intervisible, but buildings and trees seem to be in the way.

Mårhøj Jættestue submitted by holger_rix on 2nd Aug 2011. One of the finest examples of the well preserved danish passage graves.
The biggest tomb of the island Fyn.
The beautiful passage grave Mårhøj lies on a natural hill and
therefore looks extra impressive. The 10 m long and about 2 m wide tomb
was excavated in 1868 by the local farm owner Sun.
He found some human bones and an amber bead as the only
remains of Neolithic burials.
In the corridor stood an urn with burnt bones, but it must have been
from the Late Bronze Age or per...

Log Text: Easy to find, signposted from road 315 Kerteminde to Fyns Hoved. Visible from that road too. Good parking places available. Marvellous site, well worth a detour. After leaving the 315 be sure to look also at the right side. You can clearly see the Esterhøj Jaettestue there (but not from the parking place). Weird how high the entrance is.
