Artificial Mound in North Rhine-Westphalia

IMPORTANT NOTE: Site believed to be near this position.

South of Aachen, near the Belgian border, walk from the "Gut Entenpfuhl" restaurant the Klausbergweg up the hill. Just below the summit, take the small path to the left for about a further 800 meters to the tumulus. This bronze age (1800-1000 BCE) tumulus was excavated in 1924 which found the mound divided into 12 niches by radial stone walls within a circular stone wall.
