Langholz Steingrab submitted by holger_rix : A very beautiful tomb, a Dolmen out of the book. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg

Near the Baltic Sea, on the Schwansen peninsula, in a forest near Langholz.
I took the footpath from Klein-Waabs, a 10 minute walk with a nice view out to the sea.
A very beautiful tomb, a Dolmen out of the book.
Smallest Dolmen I have seen, it is just some 1.5 metres high. One capstone, five uprights.
Dimensions outside appr. 2.5 x 1.5 m.
It has been restored in 1977, the tomb is dated 2900 - 2600 BCE.

Langholz Steingrab submitted by maddy : July 2008. The alternative name for this site is Seeberg and from the restaurant in the hamlet it is a scant five minutes uphill past the stables. I visited @ 8.00pm, I was staying in Klein Waabs, and it was a bit eerie - and difficult to photograph!

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

This tomb was rated as 'destroyed' in 1960.
Only one of the orthostats was in situ.

The dolmen was restored in 1977.
So, most of the stones are not original.
