    The Steinalkenheide is the largest preserved burial mound in the district of Rotenburg / Wümme in Lower Saxony.

    The megalithic tomb is once again surrounded by meadows in the middle of nowhere. It's a great place to take a break and, when the sun is high, let the stones provide shade.

    But it's very important not to leave any trash lying around or light fires or anything like that.

    It's remarkable how much effort people put into creating a family tomb over 4,000 years ago, using only manual labor.
    Burial of the dead held a high priority in people's lives back then.
