Schneiderberg means dress maker mountain.
In the middle of an allot settlement.
Four Chambered Tombs are hidden inside the barrow. One capstone was used for creating a memorial in front of the church at 51.76303 N / 11.79826 E.
The name of the village is interesting: Baalberge, this means "Baal mountains".
