Chambered Tomb in Lower Saxony, Bremen
edit by 'holger_rix' (1-6-2009):
The tomb was blasted with explosives in 1949,
and the Sprockhoff Atlas states that this was initiated by a lunatic.
('auf Veranlassung eines Irren')
original text by 'stollentroll':
The chambered tomb was destroyed in 1949, only 3 stones survived.
