Aspelhorn Steingrab submitted by holger_rix : We found this sign 'Prehistoric Graves' not far from the grave. On the way back we asked the owner about it. He explained that english troops had used this area for training. In those days it was common that hords of rolling tanks were driving through these woods. Lucky me: The owner gave me that sign as a present. (Vote or comment on this photo)
