Hiking

This burial mound is one of the few of what used to be thousands (!) that stretched out in a huge Bronze and Iron Age burial ground between Monning, Kaiserberg and Wedau. They were all built over and demolished. It is sad what a pitiful state this last remnant of an impressive culture is in today. It would be respectful and beautiful to cut the burial mound free, remove the traces of destruction and let grass grow over it again. More information here:
