Agri Stabelhøje submitted by DrewParsons : View from the summit. Coming from New Zealand the description of the site set on a high hill made me smile. However, the view from this hill was lovely today. I am finding that the prehistoric sites in Denmark are amongst the best I have yet seen. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Agri Stabelhøje
Agri Stabelhøje submitted by hamish : This notice is quite informative if you can read Danish. It says that the barrows are 3000-3500 years old. The pictures show what may well be inside the Barrows, these have never been excavated. (3 comments)
