- Megalithic Tomb in the Papenbusch -

Tomb from the later Stone Age (extended dolmen); built around 2900-2600 BC.
The site was previously completely covered by a heaped up mound. Only one of the capstones of the chamber remains today, but its original location is also uncertain.

The builders of such graves belonged to the so-called Funnel Beaker Culture. They formed the first peasant population to farm and raise livestock.

The stone circle and the stone pack are replicas of urn graves from the Iron Age (around 600-500 BC) from Arkebek.
