Round Barrow(s) in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania
Hügelgrab Groß Bölkow
(round barrow Groß Bölkow)
Listed as ancient site in official maps it is located at one of the highest points in the landscape. From here you have a wide view in all directions. It is like a beacon in the landscape. 22 meter in diameter and 4 meter in height makes it an almost perfecly preserved mound. Many holes got dug into the mound. Fresh traces of a badger show that they have made it their home. I wonder how deep these tunnels go and what they have seen in there. Many flint flakes around the mound are evidence of flintknapping. 2.5 kilometer south south east the remains of the three megalithic sites from the village Ziesendorf can be visited.
