Just north of Restruper Strasse, close to Restrup. The site is highly unique in that it is about 100 meters long and consists of two chambered tombs connected by 2 53 Meter long parallel stone rows orientated NNW-SSE. The chambered tombs respectively measure 20 Meters by 3 Meters and 19 Meters by 3.5 Meters and date to about 2500 BCE. The Northernmost tomb is in the best condition and still has most of the cap stones in place.
