Westerwanna 04 is the remainder of a long barrow (Hunebed), whose 30 m long earth embankment with a deep burial in the middle is still to be recognized. From the enclosure and the chamber only a few scattered stones are preserved. It lies about 100 m southeast of Westerwanna 01 and 140 m northeast of Westerwanna 02.
The tomb lies under a tree group in the middle of a field. So a visit in winter might be the better choice.
Drive from Westerwanna on the K5 (Feuerstättenweg) to the west and first passes the burial mound Gravenberg. After approx. 2.8 km, turn left into Süderheide and then turn right into Heideweg. After about 400 m you can see left hand about 150 m from the road in a field a smaller group of trees under which the Westerwanna 01 is located and 90 m to the left another group of trees, where the tombs Westerwanna 02, Westerwanna 03 and Westerwanna 04 are located.
