With has a diameter of over 25 metres and a height of approximately 3 metres, the oval mound is the largest prehistoric mound in East Frisia. Two excavations between 1898 and 1904 uncovered, among other things, a Neolithic burial mound, six urn graves and ten cremation graves from the Bronze and Iron Ages, and a medieval horse grave. Several boulders may have belonged to a (Bronze Age) stone coffin.
The Radbodsberg is idyllically located in a small wood directly beside the road “Am Radbodsberg” in the municipality of Dunum.
