A group of 45 Round Barrows near the village Addenstorf, in Lower Saxony. The place has a unique excavated, restored Round Barrow which is a very good attempt to show what's inside a barrow.

English:
While the bronze age barrows dominate, I see there are long barrows and a passage grave, plus marker stones, and chambered tombs. This suggests a long continuity of usage of the area, back to the Neolithic. Is there any work being done on solar alignments at solstices or equinoxes, or any other aspects? It good to be able to see how much is already being done with this group.
Google Translate to German:
Während die bronzezeitlichen Grabhügel dominieren, sehe ich, dass es lange Grabhügel und ein Durchgangsgrab sowie Markierungssteine und Kammergräber gibt. Dies deutet auf eine lange Kontinuität der Nutzung des Gebiets hin, zurück in die Jungsteinzeit. Gibt es irgendwelche Arbeiten, die an Sonnenausrichtungen an Sonnenwenden oder Tagundnachtgleichen oder anderen Aspekten durchgeführt werden? Es ist gut zu sehen, wie viel mit dieser Gruppe bereits getan wird.
