イェンナースドルフの天然記念物・トップ14

Someone has clearly gone to great lengths to bring history to life here. Kudos! The excavated grave and its accompanying description are just as interesting as the three reconstructed burial mounds. And when you've had your fill of learning, you can also rest comfortably in the shade. Perfect!

This offers a beautiful, expansive view. It's a good spot for photos.

The burial mound field in Rax, with 72 preserved burial mounds, is one of the largest Noric-Pannonian burial grounds in Burgenland. Known to the local population since the 19th century, eight tumuli were examined and dated to the 1st and 2nd centuries during archaeological excavations by the Burgenland State Museum in 1956. The construction of these burial mounds was particularly common among the local Celtic population of the early Roman Imperial period. They cremated their deceased on a pyre along with various grave goods. Various burial structures, such as stone settings, stone packings, stone burial chambers, and even brick and plastered burial chambers with an entrance, are often found beneath the mound. These were intended to accommodate and protect the cremated human remains and grave goods. Equally numerous are simple cremation graves without any built-in features, as is demonstrably the case with the burial mounds examined in Rax.

Natural landscapes beautiful

Walkable, but the view from above is not much different than from below ;-)

The place shows the permanence and also the transience of national borders. Very nicely done!

There is a beautiful view here and a quick photo stop is worth it.

One of the historical boundary stones.
