Væslev Jættestuer (Passage Graves)

Væslev Jættestuer (Passage Graves)
Svebølle, Denmark (DK)
Near the village of Værslev on the Danish island of Zealand are the remains of two Neolithic passage graves. Both passage graves are located right beside the road. The mound of both passage graves has been damaged due to ploughing and the road cuts across them. The grave on the left-hand side of the road has three entrances and chambers which are still clearly visible and enterable. The passage grave on the right-hand side of the road is in a slightly worse condition as the entrance and chamber are not accessible and are damaged however the stones covering the chamber are still clearly visible. The site is a registered historical monument and protected.

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