Baggeljarlshaugen submitted by kenntha88 : Site in Nord-Trøndelag Norway (Vote or comment on this photo)
This large and very pretty barrow cemetery is divided into two main groups, one is in a small birch forest next to the local country road and the other on a small hill just next to a farm to the north-east. The part on the hill is very overgrown and despite the impressive size of the largest barrow it is difficult to see and photograph. The part of the cemetery in the small forest is made possible to visit and there are plans to set up information posters.

The site consists today of 22 different burials. 2 elongated barrows, 2 very large round barrows and 18 smaller round barrows. The largest barrow is around 30 metres in diameter and 3-4 metres in height. It is very overgrown and hard to see. Two smaller round barrows are just next to it.

The rest of the barrows are from 4 to 18 metres in diameter and 0,5 to 2,5 metres in height. Some have clear ditches around them and the ones in the small forest are easy to find. The elongated barrows are around 8 to 20 metres in length and 4-5 metres wide. They have sharp edges and shaped like boats. A white phallic stone was found at one of the long barrows, this is today in Trondheim museum. Almost all the barrows have craters on top.
