Ingershøj, also known as Ingers Høj, is a prominent Bronze Age round barrow located just south of Vindeby on Tåsinge, Denmark. Standing approximately 7 meters high and 40-41 meters in diameter, it is situated on a high ridge, making it one of the largest and most magnificent ancient mounds in the Funen area.
Historically, Ingershøj was once surrounded by a large stone circle, which was removed around 150 years ago.
Although damaged by grave robbers in the 1700s, this damage was reportedly repaired. The mound has never been archaeologically investigated, so no finds are known, and its specific dating to the early Bronze Age is presumptive. It is the last surviving monument from a group of burial mounds that once signified local power. A granite postament stone for a trigonometric station was added to its summit in 1901.
Today, Ingershøj is a protected ancient monument (Fredningsnummer: 411721), fully preserved since 1937.
A famous legend explains how a young woman named Inger promised fidelity to her first love, vowing the Devil could claim her if she broke her word. When she attempted to marry another, the Devil appeared at Bregninge church and dragged her to the mound. Her bridal wreath protected her until a boy removed it, allowing the Devil to pull her into the barrow. This tale is thought to have saved Ingershøj from being leveled, unlike other nearby mounds.

You could add the folklore as a folklore post if you like (there's a category for it when you choose to add a post)? Then it would be more prominent on the page for the site. I like the folklore :)
