    The peculiarity of the megalithic grave in Ueffeln is that the grave chambers have been completely preserved. In contrast to other graves, clay vessels, flint blades and amber beads were found in these during excavations in the 19th century. Often there are barely preserved additions in the stone graves. The Wiemelsberg stones were made between 3500 and 2800 BC. Created.

    The Wiemelsberg stone tomb is one of the best-preserved examples of the Neolithic period in the Osnabrück region.
    It has a very rare grave form for the region: it consists of a closed chamber with no access. Most megalithic tombs in the Osnabrück area and the Emsland region are so-called passage tombs.
    They have a short passage leading into the stone chamber and are usually located in the middle of the southern long side.
