Dolmen D1, Prehistoric burial site in Steenbergen, Netherlands.

Dolmen D1 features large granite stones forming a chamber with capstones, positioned diagonally against a sand drift slope in northeastern Netherlands.

The megalithic tomb was constructed between 3470 and 3250 BC by the Funnel Beaker culture, marking one of the earliest human settlements in the region.

The stone structure represents advanced engineering capabilities of Neolithic communities, who transported massive glacial boulders from Scandinavia to create burial chambers.

Located 150 meters from the main road in Steenbergen, the archaeological site includes walking paths for visitors to explore the prehistoric monument.

The northernmost dolmen in Drenthe province stands as one of 54 remaining megalithic tombs from an estimated original count of 100 in the Netherlands.
