Glaner Braut, Neolithic dolmen in Wildeshausen, Germany

The Glaner Braut consists of four separate megalithic structures positioned along the Hunte River within the Glaner Heath Nature Reserve.

The megalithic structures, built between 3500 and 2800 BCE during the Funnel Beaker culture period, served as burial chambers for the region's inhabitants.

Archaeological excavations in 2011 revealed an Iron Age urn containing cremated remains, indicating the site's continued use for burials across different periods.

The archaeological site lies at coordinates 52.9302417, 8.3743097 and received official protection status as a state-owned monument on April 2, 1934.

The high concentration of megalithic structures near Glaner Braut indicates this area maintained substantial settlement density during the Neolithic period.
