Kelstrup Megalithic Tombs (Passage Grave and Long Barrow)


Slagelse, Denmark (DK)
Located on the west coast of the Danish island of Zealand in the near the town of Kelstrup are the remains of long barrow and passage grave dating back to the Neolithic era. The sites are located behind a private resistance and next to the local beach.

The long barrow remains in good condition with its kerbstones and dolmens still largely intact. The passage grave less impressive as it only consists of one large boulder, presumably a capstone, largely buried in the remains of the mound.

Another dolmen can be found just a few metres further down the beach.
