Karlsminde Longbarrow, Neolithic dolmen in Waabs, Germany
The Karlsminde Longbarrow extends 56 meters in length and features massive stone structures weighing up to 2.5 tons arranged in three transverse rectangular columns.
The megalithic tomb dates back to approximately 2500 BC and contains evidence of continuous use through the Ice Age, including urn burials after the birth of Christ.
Archaeological discoveries within the chambers revealed agricultural tools, jewelry, and clay dishes that were placed alongside the deceased for their journey into the afterlife.
The archaeological site stands between the estates of Hohenstein and Ludwigsburg, offering visitors direct access through designated walking paths and parking facilities.
The structure incorporates specific engineering methods of the Neolithic period, demonstrated by the precise placement of enormous stones to create burial chambers.
