Round Barrow(s) at Sylt in Schleswig-Holstein
The tumulus 'Boikenhoog', located northwest of Keitum, is a prominent point in the landscape and is closely related to the Galighoog south of Munkmarsch on the edge of the Jückersmarsch. According to legend, Pidder Lüng haunts the Boikenhoog every night from the Galighoog as a 'Jückersmarschmann'.
The tumulus can be assigned to the Bronze Age.
