Oldendorfer Totenstatt near Amelinghausen |
We are here within the Luhe valley near Amelinghausen. On this wide grave yard 5000 years ago the people build passage-graves and later on burial mounds. Similar necropoli can be seen at Badenstedt and Soderstorf. |
Those graves were used for a whole kin. Some walls have more than 100 m in length and contain two or more stone chambers. They were in use for long periods. The walls were bordered with "smaller" erratic blocks, that now are often missing.
