Excavated in 1988, Großenrode I represents a grave type distributed mainly in east Central Germany (“Mauerkammergrab”). One key feature of this type is a construction consisting of wood and dry stone walls. The building up of the county road 425 led between 1988 and 1990 to several emergency excavations (for the results see links below). At the southern end of Großenrode an original stone of the tomb, a replica of a stone with soul hole and an information board was set up.
