Stone Circle in Limburg
A stone circle was discovered here in 1979, about 1 metre underground.
It was excavated by local archaeologists, alas somewhat clumsily : very few scientific data have been recorded, no excavation plan has been drawn, etc.
As the site attracted ever increasing fancy pagan rituals, it was decided to re-bury it for later investigation.
All you can see today is a laconic information board along the road.
