Everstorfer Forst Nord 10

Everstorfer Forst Nord 10, like Everstorfer Forst Nord 9, was known solely as a Bronze Age burial mound until it was excavated by E. Schuldt. These are the remains of a small chamber, which has since receded somewhat back into the hill.It has two supporting stones on each of its long sides. One of the supporting stones has toppled into the chamber. The northern keystone is also still in place. The opposite side is only half-closed by a stone; this was apparently where the entrance was located. A stone lying next to it is probably the remains of an enclosure. Several other stones are scattered across the hill. One of the capstones was taken to Hamberge, some two kilometres further west, in 1922 and erected there as a memorial to the victims of the First World War. It is adorned with numerous small cup marks.

Everstorfer Forst Nord 10 lies about 500 metres west of the signposted northern group of megalithic tombs. Take the road that runs past this group and continue towards Grevesmühlen. Just before the woodland begins to the north of the road, a path branches off to the south into the woods (it’s easy to find a parking space here). Follow the path and, after a short while, you will come across two very conspicuous mounds on which the two stone tombs are situated. Everstorfer Forst Nord 10 is the western of the two.
