- Kummerhy burial mound -
Excavated burial mound from the late Bronze Age (around 650-500 BC). The cremated remains of the dead man were found in a small stone box in the center.
Outside the inner stone circle there is an approximately 2m high “guarding stone” with more than 45 cup marks.
Later, perhaps not until the Viking Age (9th-10th centuries AD), another dead person was buried unburned, the outer stone circle was laid out and a new hill about 15 m in diameter was built over it.
Excavated in 1861; exposed again in 1927 by the Bürgerverein (“citizens’ association”) Süderbrarup.
