Nowadays it is possible to have a view from one chamber-part to the other through a small gap. The two chamber parts are of similar size: 4,34m x 2,1m (southern part) and 4,7m x 1,8m (northern-part). The chambers are comparativly low with a maximum height of 1,25m. The passages are facing approximately northeast. Both have two bottlenecks, where they are narrowed by protruding orthostats. Obviously it was so important to the neolithic people to have two separated chamber-parts, that they even accepted the enormous extra-effort to build two passages.
