Oldendorfer Totenstatt, Megalithic burial ground in Oldendorf, Germany

The Oldendorfer Totenstatt contains six prehistoric burial mounds spread across a heathland area, with some structures extending up to 80 meters in length.

Archaeological excavations revealed that the site dates back to 5700 years ago, featuring dolmens and tumuli from different prehistoric periods including the Bronze Age.

The burial chambers required approximately 130 stones for construction and demonstrate the engineering capabilities of early farming communities in northern Germany.

Visitors can access the site via a parking area located 50 meters away, with information panels and a brochure box available on the grounds.

The largest structure at the site, grave number four, originally contained 108 megalithic stones arranged in five separate sections.
