Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania

A chambered tomb (a simple dolmen). The rectangular hunebed around the chambered tomb is a recent construction, but doesn't reflect the original condition. An old drawing shows a small circle of stones around the dolmen.

Thelkow Dolmen submitted by holger_rix : One of the few simple Urdolmen in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Located close to a path. The nice looking enclosure is modern. Three of the former four uprights of the small chamber are still (almost) in situ. The capstone has been moved, it leans on the chamber. (Vote or comment on this photo)
