These 5000-year-old graves are among the most important archaeological monuments between Hamburg and Hanover and have been listed as historical monuments since 1832. They are located in the middle of the Bergen military training area, surrounded by a fascinating landscape.

**Important information for your visit:**
- The only public access begins at a post with a barrier in Ostenholz, about 4 kilometers southeast of the Walsrode motorway triangle.
- The access road leads through several kilometers of the military training area's restricted area, which is regularly cleared of ammunition residues.
- Please find out about the current shooting times to avoid possible closed passageways.

The burial site dates from the time of the Neolithic Funnel Beaker culture and was built around 2500 BC by the first settled farmers.

Impressive stone monuments in the middle of the military training area - a visit that will have a lasting impact.

The Seven Stone Houses are located on the Bergen military training area. To avoid having to stand in front of closed access roads, I ask you to find out about the shooting times below beforehand. Please have your ID ready.

The entrance / barrier is in the town of Osterholz. From there, a path of around 6 km leads to the stone graves.
