Gundsølille Langdysse and Jættestue (Long Barrow and Passage Grave)


Gundsømagle, Denmark (DK)
Located behind a couple of farms in a field are two Neolithic burials. One is the remains of a long barrow and the other the remains of a passage grave. The long barrow has been destroyed by ploughed and only two stones from the dolmen remain today in an overgrown patch of land. The passage grave's mound is still clearly visible with both entrances still clearly visible - one can even climb inside the mound. The long barrow and are passage are both thought to have been constructed sometime between 3950 BC - 2801 BC.

The dolmen and passage grave are one of several Neolithic sites in the area. All sites are protected.
