Stueh Grabhuegelgruppe submitted by CharcoalBurner89 on 12th Mar 2021. The bronze age barrow cemetery is largely overgrown by natural plants and forestry management. The tumuli are extremely difficult to find and hardly visible in wood because they are not very high.
On the photo you can see the tumulus located northeast (exact location: Latitude: 53.45813N, Longitude: 9.24708E).

Stonehenge. submitted by dodomad on 11th May 2022. Much of the project research & excavation was on National Trust land. "The discovery of the largest known Early Mesolithic pit in NW Europe shows that this was a special place for communities 1000s of years before the first stones were erected."

Stenvad 50 Kroner Dysse submitted by Martin_L on 8th Apr 2008. The northeastern chamber is quite picturesque.
It is one of Denmarks most famous megalithic tombs: It even was depicted on the 50 kroner-banknote. Some barrow kerbstones are also visible on this picture [April 1992]. Scan from old diapositive, sorry for bad quality.

Steinhügelgrab im Ummel submitted by CharcoalBurner89 on 7th Mar 2021. Today the stone circle is barely visible due to the overgrowth of moss and the accumulation of leaves from the surrounding forest.
From the information board on site:
The stone ring marks the original end of the tumlus and is barely recognizable today because of the earth that has flowed down. Most of the tree coffins have passed away in the sandy soil. Only the shore stones and the soil discoloration still show their location. In the older and middle Bronze Age (approx. 1600 to 1200 BC)...

Only the shore stones and the soil discoloration still show their location. In the older and middle Bronze Age (approx. 1600 to 1200 BC) the dead were buried in coffins made from hollowed-out tree trunks. There were often several graves in the great hills. The rare bronze grave goods were excavated as early as the 19th century. The finds are in the State Museum of Lower Saxony in Hanover.
