Highly recommended for both adults and children! The heart of the prehistoric collection is the "Forum Gesseler Goldhort".

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.

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.

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.

Hence the original size of the chamber is unknown. According to the size of the pit resulting from destruction it may have had 2 or 3 capstones. To the right (South): one of the very few remaining kerbstones is vis...

Log Text: Definitely worth the visit! Warning: It is best to come by during the summer, when it has been dry for a particularly long time - the area in the field where the stone is located is otherwise very swampy and you cannot get to the stone directly with dry feet.
