Kong Asgers Høj

Kong Asgers Høj is a well-preserved Neolithic passage grave measuring approximately 10 meters in length with a 7.5-meter entrance corridor, constructed from massive stone blocks around 3200 BC.

First excavated in 1839 by merchant Gustav Hage who discovered a battle axe, flint flakes, and skeletal remains, the monument was officially protected as a heritage site in 1861.

Built by the Funnel Beaker culture, this megalithic tomb represents one of approximately 400-500 stone graves originally constructed on Møn and Bogø islands over a 500-year period.

Visitors can access the site using GPS coordinates 54.957188 N, 12.140268 E, with parking available nearby and clear signage directing to the monument through surrounding farmland.

The interior chamber allows visitors to walk upright inside the ancient burial space, where remnants of modern candles suggest ongoing ceremonial use by contemporary pagan groups.
