Heine Steingrab 2

Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: Germany (Lower Saxony, Bremen)

Heine Steingrab 2 submitted by Martin_L on 11th Jan 2008. Heine Tomb 2 (Sprockhoff No. 626)
The southend of the chamber.
Most likely the two southernmost uprights on the western- and eastern chamberside were removed in historic times. So there is some evidence, that the large southern capstone was originally placed on 5 uprights. In general this is a rare feature in this area but there is another example in the neighbourhood (Lehnstedt, Tomb 1, Sprockhoff No. 621).

Log Text: A really beautiful dolmen even if it is heavily overgrown. There is no direct path to reach it, so you have to find a route through the forest via GPS.

Log Text: Unfortunately, the cup-marks are not very clearly visible on the stone. You have to look very carefully or feel it on the stone. There is an information board next to the stone.

Site Type: Round Barrow(s)
Country: Germany (Lower Saxony, Bremen)
Visited: Yes on 12th Mar 2021. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 3 Access 4
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).
You can find more information in this book:

Ohrensen Steingrab submitted by Martin_L on 15th Jun 2010. Looking along the southern long-side (from a height of approx. 6m). The two “x” mark the ends of the remains of this large chambered and kerbed long-barrow measuring 48m by 7m . The chamber was located near the centre (marked with “C”).
To get an impression how the site originally looked compare with similar sites in Germany and Denmark in better condition. For example: Kleinenkneter Steine , Karlsminde , Grønsalen
While the earthwork of the western part is comparatively well pr...
