Description Long Barrows are not common around here. 3 have been in the village of Hemdingen, not far from the Hemdingen Necropolis I already wrote about. Unfortunately they are all destroyed. One is completely gone. The other two are left as a quite impressive ridge on a field and a part of a hedgerow. Stones have been used in 1832 for building the road between Altona (Hamburg) and Kiel. Still in 1896 former owner of field found a complete stone chamber in one of them.
