The Grabhügel am Burgweg is a round barrow in Borchen (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany).
The barrow has a diameter of 13 m and is 1.30 m high. It is surrounded by a ditch, which is 1 m broad and 0.5 m deep.
The mound is a reconstruction based on archaeological finds made about 6.3 km to the West in a field near Etteln.
