Without any doubt, one of the most beautiful Long Barrows in Germany. What a mighty barrow ! I could only say 'WoW!' when I realized the dimensions of this Long Barrow.

When you come to the Everstorfer Forst, you can actually see it allready from the street. Some of the bolders are more then 2 metres high ! The Riesengrab is some 40 metres long ond 10 metres wide.

The stones of the big chamber have the same dimensions, and are also pretty complete.

We visited this site during our tour of German megaliths in the summer of 2018 - take a look for some video footage of this site and numerous others that we visited

Yes Holger, it really is an impressive site! I remember my visit in 1992 when I had a short stop at the Everstorf Süd-Gruppe on the way back from Sweden. I think I also had a "wow" in my mind then... :-)
