Legend has it that King Rene and his Queen are buried here.
Just south of Tranekær you turn off the county road to Strandby. After 600 m follow the side road south towards Pæregård. At the southern edge of the forest, immediately to the west of the path, is one burial mound, a long dolmen, on a cultivated field, while the other - a passage grave - can be found 100 m further north at the edge of the forest.

As mentioned, the passage grave is on the edge of the forest, from a distance it appears as a distance. Its western part, situated in the field, is now badly plowed up, while the parts lying in the forest are quite well preserved, with an almost 4.5 x 2 m, almost completely filled with earth, oval passage burial chamber without capstones. Not excavated.
