The round barrows are 0.8 m high and have diameters between 11 and 14 m. Two of the the five remaining barrows were analysed in 1933/1934. Grave goods like vessels, axes and flint stone blades were discovered.
Today, three of the round barrows are still relatively well preserved. They were added to the list of archaeological sites of Selm in 1985.
