Kurhany Dzierzgówek submitted by SolarMegalith : Round barrow I in Dzierzgówek - view from the West (photo taken on August 2009). (Vote or comment on this photo)
A large barrow cemetery in Dzierzgówek is located South of the buildings of the village, on the Eastern side of the main road.

Round barrow I is located on a small hill, now in the middle of the field. Its shape was heavily changed by agricultural works and it has 25 x 9m in diameter now. Many large stones, originally forming the ring surrounding the round barrow, are still visible.

Round barrow II is located North-East of the first one, in a group of trees.

Round barrow III is located about 150m South-East of round barrow I, in a small depression. It is heavily damaged, originally it had 10 m in diameter.

Round barrows IV-VI are located south of the first three, they are all heavily damaged and their remains are barely visible in the field.

All round barrows are dated to Hallstatt period (750-480 BC).
