In 1903 only nine stones remained from this tomb...
Six fallen stones in a row.. most likely uprights,
showing the original orientation of the tomb.
Nowadays something similar to a Chambered Tomb
has been arranged at this place, right in the city of Löningen.
But the "uprights" are much too close, and the "capstones"
are too small, they don't form a chamber.
