Kong Humbles grav, Neolithic dolmen in Langeland Municipality, Denmark

Kong Humbles grav extends 55 meters in length and 8 meters in width, featuring 77 border stones arranged around a central burial chamber.

The site dates back to the Funnel Beaker culture period between 3500 and 2800 BCE, when agricultural communities constructed large stone monuments.

The monument demonstrates advanced engineering capabilities of Neolithic builders through its carefully positioned stones and single vaulted chamber design.

Located 400 meters from Humble Church, the archaeological site maintains its original structure and remains accessible for public viewing throughout the year.

The first documented excavation in the 1700s revealed what locals mistakenly identified as giant bones, which were later determined to be cow remains.
