Directly on the road 'Thölstedt' you can see the large information board, which points to the Großsteingrab at the edge of the forest. The large stone grave is a so-called passage grave with a 10.5x2m large chamber, which is still largely hidden in the hill. Only the four capstones are exposed, the capstones underneath are mostly still hidden in the ground.

When I look at these graves, I keep asking how our ancestors managed to move such stones.
