Chambered Tomb

Nucleus Nov 5, 2018

The only, if only in remnants survived megalithic tomb in Vress are the Plingenberger Steine. There are still 3 capstones (one of which is incomplete), six supporting stones and a stone of the enclosure. 1895 were probably still 15 supporting stones available. The burial chamber is oriented in northwest-southeast direction. The length has to be at least 10 meters at 2 meters width.

To get to the tomb drive from Peheim to Vrees and turn right into Gehlenberger Weg and proceed northwards. After about 2.5 km turn right into a small road and continue for another 160 m . You should notice a small information board on the right. The tomb lies 30m behind this board in the wood.
