Arnkielpark, Archaeological site with dolmens in Oeversee, Germany

The Arnkielpark grounds contain seven megalithic structures, including a round burial mound and six elongated graves constructed with large stone blocks.

The megalithic structures were built between 3500 and 2800 BC by members of the Funnel Beaker culture as burial places for their community members.

The site bears the name of Troels Arnkiel, a pastor and researcher who documented these megalithic structures during his journey along the Oxen Trail in 1690.

Visitors can access the site through multiple transportation options, including cars with designated parking spaces, buses that stop nearby, and connecting cycling paths.

The reconstructed burial bed spans over 75 meters in length and required 160 boulders weighing up to three tons each from a local gravel pit.
