Passage grave in Lower Saxony, Bremen

One of those typical extra long Emsland tombs,
located at the road from Klein Berßen to Hüven.
24 stones of the oval Long Barrow enclosure are visible,
but only the south are still in position.
The chamber is deeply embedded in the remains of the barrow.
Seven of the former ten capstones are still on the chamber,
now they are on ground level. Just some tips of the
orthostats can be seen.
