Modern Stone Circle / Monolith in Randers

The place named "Ammelhede" occurs in a story involving the legendary Iron Age King Amled. This story, first recorded ca. 1200, is said to have inspired W. Shakespeare for his Hamlet. Based on this account, a memorial stone was erected in 1933 and called "Hamlets Grav".

Access by car theoretically up to the site, but in practice the last 100 on foot. The earth road passing in front of the site leads to a farmstead.

Just to note I needed to change the site name for this new site page from Hamlets Grav to Hamlets Grav (Randers) as it was picking up photos for Hamlets Grav Langdysse long barrow. If you want/need another site name, please post a comment here. Thanks!
