The Hünergräberstraße des Hümmlings offers an astonishing concentration of prehistoric architecture. At least 22 megalithic buildings used to stand here and today you can still visit nine megalithic tombs within a distance of only 1km. An important trade route probably passed here as early as the Stone Age, which would explain the density. Seven of the megalithic tombs are located in the heath-covered nature reserve Holschkenfehn.

I can only recommend a visit here 👍 there are so many stone tombs within a short walk, including the reconstructed megalithic tomb. A small hut with seating can also be found.
