Großsteingrab Heidenopfertisch, Megalithic tomb near Engelmannsbäke, Germany
The Heidenopfertisch megalithic tomb features a massive capstone measuring 5 by 3 meters, supported by three pairs of bearing stones in their original position.
The megalithic structure, constructed between 3500 and 2800 BCE during the Funnel Beaker culture period, stands in the Wildeshausen Geest along the Megalithic Culture Route.
In 1827, artist Ludwig Philipp Strack created a detailed lithograph of the megalithic tomb, documenting its appearance during the early nineteenth century.

The capstone weighs approximately 50 tons and represents one of the largest preserved megalithic structures in northern Germany.
