Herslev Kumlehøj Dysser (Long Barrow)

Herslev Kumlehøj Dysser (Long Barrow)
Rudkobing, Denmark (DK)
Located in a field on the Danish island of Langeland are the remains of a Neolithic long barrow. The site has been reduced due to ploughing over the years, but some parts still remain today. The stones that once surrounded the edge of the mound no longer exist. However, two dolmens stand on the mound today and are the only original remains of the long barrow. The site is visible from the nearby road. The site is a registered historical monument and protected.

The grave is thought to have been constructed between 3950 BC - 2801 BC.
