The site in Krzętle is the earliest early medieval barrow cemetery in Central Poland. It dates back to the 7th-8th century AD and consists of five burial mounds, some of them partially reconstructed.

Coordinates of the barrows (I numbered them from the NW to the SE):
Barrow 1 - 51.304749, 18.808233
Barrow 2 - 51.304631, 18.808215
