combuijs visited on 15th Jul 2015 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 5 Access: 5 This is really known as the Troldstuerne and signposted and described as such. See also Julian Cope's Megalithic European.
Now, this is a lovely site. It is a double passage grave and the chambers share a wall. It is quite popular. It is near road 21 from Holbæk to Sjællands Odde and signposted from there. Good parking place available but it can be crowded.
