Harhoog

The rectangular megalithic tomb contains stone burial chambers with parallel and transverse sections arranged in specific patterns near the Wadden Sea coast.

Originally discovered in 1925 during the Hindenburgdamm construction, the monument was relocated to its current position in 1954 due to airport development.

The burial structure dates from the Funnelbeaker culture around 3000 BC and represents the engineering capabilities of early Northern European societies.

The archaeological site stands outdoors and remains accessible throughout the year, allowing visitors to examine the stone construction up close.

This megalithic tomb is one of approximately 300 remaining structures from an original collection of 600 that existed in the Schleswig-Holstein region.
