The Hespenbusch burial mound is one of the less well-known prehistoric cemeteries in the Wildeshauser Geest. We think absolutely wrongly, because like the Pestruper burial ground, it is located in a very beautiful heathland that is under nature protection. Since it is far less frequented by visitors than the Pestruper burial ground, there is an unforgettable silence here. Most of the 54 mounds that have been preserved are still clearly visible.
