Chambered Tomb

Nucleus Mar 3, 2019

Leetze 5 is a grand dolmen consisting of six pairs of supporting stones. It lies 85m south of Leetze 4 at the edge of the forest, just south of the road from Leetze to Gieseritz, next to a forest path beginning here. The enclosure is oriented north-northwest-south-southeast; it has a length of 24 m and a width of 5.0-6.5 m. It is trapezoidal and still has 34 of originally probably 37 stones. Guardian stones stand at the corners of the enclosure.
