Kong Svends Høj is one of the largest and best preserved passage graves in Denmark. A passage grave is the form of a grave whose central chamber can be entered via a somewhat narrow passage. Normally these graves are all circular, which makes the Kong Svends Høj stand out from the crowd, because it is 21 meters long and 15 meters wide and thus more like a rectangle or oval. The tomb was erected around 3200 BC.

A very beautiful passage grave from the Stone Age. Approximately 5,000 years old.
One of the most famous in Denmark. It also has a lovely rest area.
