Ildbjerg Langdysse
Date Added: 27th Sep 2022
Site Type: Long Barrow
Country: Denmark (Midtjylland)
Visited: Yes on 24th Sep 2022. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 4
Ildbjerg Langdysse submitted by Martin_L on 31st May 2010. Scan from old diapositive (sorry for quality) showing the very impressive site from the NE. The capstone of the southern chamber is clearly visible. The northern chamber is to the right of it, but less obvious as the capstone is robbed. As at similar sites the kerb-stones of the narrow sides are significantly larger. June 1992

Log Text: Very well preserved. However, this can only be achieved if the field is not currently being planted. Otherwise a really impressively well-preserved long barrow.

Log Text: Note from me: The completion of a new building is currently planned for the year 2030. The museum may be open to the public for another 1-2 years before the new building begins. So if you don't want to wait, you should plan your visit now or wait for the reopening (which should be more impressive).
