Tips
The popular name “Hünengrab”, which is widespread in northern Germany, is derived from “Hüne”, which can be traced back to the Middle High German “hiune” and the Low German “hûne” meaning “giant”. Even in the 17th century there was a widespread view in literature that these were "graves for giants"
