26 Meter long and 6 Meter wide East West oriented chambered tomb of which a total of 19 stones of the perimeter, but no chamber remain. The initial survey was made by Sprockhoff in the 1930s. The long barrow is quite low now (about 0,5 m high), but it's shape is well visible. The long, non-chambered long barrow is located near the dolmen in Borkowo. Together with other tombs (mostly destroyed) it was a large cemetery of the Funnelbeaker culture.
