The mound is 2.5 metres high and 25 metres in diameter. |

(2009-10-14) | Yes, he is quite right. Other passage graves like Ramshög and Carlshögen have also preserved some parts of the dry walling, but are less complete/accessible. Gillhög really is the most complete passage grave in Sweden, the perfectly preserved dry walling for example is simply stunning. |
