You pass Gluesing on the way from Schalkholz to Hennstedt. This barrow is close to the road, you just enter a small pathway parallel to the street, and there is a small 40m x 60m bush.
Strange find: in front of the bush, an overgrown iron gate. What for? And inside the bush, the Round Barrow, approx 5m high, 25m diameter.
It was not what I expected. I had hoped for some information about the golden disk of Gluesing..
