    In addition to the Visbeker Bridegroom's large stone grave, it is easy to miss the smaller graves. Both date back to the Neolithic period and are 5,000 to 5,500 years old.

      The megalithic tomb dated 935 (according to Sprockhoff) lies a few meters northwest of the "Visbek Bridegroom." The burial mound has largely retained its original form. Two capstones protrude from the chamber's top. The supporting stones are likely still deeply embedded in the ground. Whether the chamber originally had more than two capstones cannot currently be determined.
