    The long beds are megalithic tombs from the Stone Age. Even today they are tangible evidence that people lived in the area at a very early stage.

      Two “giant beds” (huge graves) on the northern edge of the town are evidence of early historical settlement in the area around Dassendorf; the street “Am Riesenbett” still indicates this today.
      These are two heavily damaged long beds registered under numbers 772 and 773. Grave 772 is about 38.0 m long and 6.0 m wide. The mound, which is still 60 cm high, had a rectangular stone frame, which is still partially intact. In the western part, the remains of a burial chamber can be seen.
      Grave 773, which is further south, is about 35.0 m long, 7.0 m wide and still 70 cm high. The stone frame of the mound is partially intact. There is a chamber in the eastern third. On the large capstone there are wedge marks from a stonemason who aborted his attempt to split the stone.
