A tomb (type Holsteiner Kammer/holstein chamber) measuring 6,4x1,8 meters was found while ploughing in the mid-80's of the last century.
It was almost completely destroyed, only some fragments of the stones survived.
The ground layer was undisturbed and included bones, tools, pottery and jewellery.
