A heavily damaged round barrow lies near the village of Wołownia in Podlaskie. In the village you need to turn left and you will see the remains of the barrow to your right. The agricultural works were the main factor which damaged this monument.
In other villages nearby, such as Jeleniewo and Prudziszki, there are remains of other barrow cemeteries.
