Lancken-Granitz

Fieldnotes

Southwest of Lancken-Granitz, Lancken-Granitz 1-4 (originally 8 graves), Burtevitz 1,3 and 4 (originally 23 graves) are a total of 7 preserved megalithic tombs lined up in a southwesterly direction, like a string of pearls over a distance of about 400m. If one adds the two megalithic tombs Dummertevitz 1 (also known as Ziegensteine) and 2 (originally 11 tombs), this collection is probably one of the largest former necropolises on Rügen.

Please note that my numbering scheme follows the numbering on the German Wikipedia page, which is based on Ewald Schludt's numbering.
