    The circular burial mounds can still be clearly seen in the meadow!

    The approximately 80 burial mounds near Wellheim were discovered in 1979 and three of them were then examined more closely. They probably date from the Bronze Age (1600 - 1200 BC) and are still clearly visible on site (unlike the photo).
