Barrow Cemetery in Akershus
Inside a fir tree forest around 30 metres away from a local road is a small iron age barrow cemetery. The largest barrow is covered only with moss and some large high masted fir trees and is easily visible despite the tight forest.
The cemtery consists of 9 round barrows. 8 to the east side of the road and one on the west side. The largest and easiest visible barrow is 20 metres in diameter and 2 metres in height. It has a crater on top and a clear ditch around the edges. The rest of the barrows are 6 to 14 metres in diameter and 0,5 to 1,75m in height. Some of the smaller barrows are located in tight brush vegetation and can be hard to make out.
Two of the smaller barrows are marked as "uncertain barrows" in kulturminnesøk. Not known for sure if these are real barrows or natural formations.
