Restored burial area from the Nordic Bronze Age (around 1400-1000 BC). The tomb with a stately diameter of 75m was used as a quarry for local construction work until 1748. From 1931 to 1933 there was a thorough excavation, which also found the remains of a Stone Age settlement under the hill, as well as large amounts of flint debris. Only teeth, bronze fragments and bone splinters were found from the Bronze Age. After the excavation, the grave was restored, but it is not known to what extent the restoration corresponds to the original condition. A comparison with contemporary graves suggests that the facility should be three times as high as the current 3.5 m. In 2021 the facility will be closed for restoration work.

The burial mound has collapsed and the entire area b.a.w. locked.
