Log Text: Wonderful museum - the parking facilities are a nightmare though. It's best to use a parking garage. The collection is well sorted for this. Unfortunately, a nicer ambience is somehow missing in some places. Otherwise I was completely satisfied with my visit!

Horneburg Langbett 3 submitted by Martin_L on 11th May 2010. View East along the remains of the approx. 50m x 6m kerbed and chambered long-barrow.

Kakerbeck Steingrab

Kakerbeck Steingrab submitted by CharcoalBurner89 on 14th Mar 2021. The condition of this stone grave can be seen as completely destroyed. There are no visible signs that it once existed here.
Perhaps archological traces can still be made visible with an excavation. But the visible part is definitely destroyed.

Dübberort Tumulus submitted by AlexHunger on 11th Dec 2005. Large 15 Meter Diameter Tumulus. There are traces that someone already tried to dig into it. This sugest that there is no megalith underneath it.

Date Added: 12th Dec 2022
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: Germany (Lower Saxony, Bremen)
Visited: Yes on 10th Dec 2022. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 3 Access 3
Dübberort Grab 1 submitted by AlexHunger on 11th Dec 2005. 18 Meters by 3 Meters large chambered tomb, with 5 good capstones. 140 Meters Altitude.
Largely overgrown with ferns, but with a good amount of the tumulus still visible, which however blocks view of uprights.
End stone, appears to have rolled down tumulus, but makes a nice bench.

Log Text: A museum that displays a large number of artefacts from both the prehistoric and the early and late times of our modern times (especially for the northern German region). Highly recommended for both adults and children! The heart of the prehistoric collection is the "Forum Gesseler Goldhort".
