is special. It is a so called Long Grave and there is only one of this
kind in Holland. About 100 km to the east near Oldenburg in Germany
there are still a few more. Two small burial chambers are embedded here
in a 40 metres long hunebed-barrow encircled by an almost complete ring
of kerbstones (restored) . Contrary to most hunebeds D43 is orientated north
- south. The most northern chamber counts 3 capstones on 6 side- and 2
endstones. From the southern chamber only 2 of the 4 capstones are left.
However, both graves still have 2 passage-sidestones.
D43 lies in Emmen only 50 metres west of the road to Odoorn. There are no parking facilities on the main road. |
