Felsener Esch 2
Felsener Esch 2 submitted by Martin_L : Foreground showing remains of megalithic tomb Schwagstorf Grab III (Sprockhoff 905). The nearby bronze age barrow is visible in the background. The chamber has been treated with explosives presumably in the 19th century. The original structure is uncertain. Situation has not changed much since my first visit in 1988. Medium format photo taken in 2018. (Vote or comment on this photo)
