Nahne Steingrab 1
Nahne Steingrab 1 submitted by johnstone : Ground-plan (1927), Picture credits: Sprockhoff, Atlas der Megalithgräber Deutschlands, Teil 3: Niedersachsen (1975) (Vote or comment on this photo)
Remains of a largely destroyed megalithic tomb east of Potthof Farm in Osnabrück Nahne. Few orthostats of the large 26m x 1,5m chamber are preserved in situ, others are fallen.

Most remaining stones are deeply embedded into the ground. Two capstones obviously were robbed and unfortunaley abused for a war memorial built right next to the neolithic tomb.
