Round Barrow(s) in Lower Saxony, Bremen. The diameter of this tumulus is 19.60 meters and it has a height of a good 1.80 meters. It is very likely that it used to be much bigger in the past. It is also very likely that the tumulus was part of an extensive barrow cemetery, which no longer exists today.
The access is limited to winter and spring time due to the cultivation of the surrounding field.
