Cairns, passage graves, long barrows and bronze-age mounds are all to be found on Møn, and there are "only" aprox. 173 preserved burial grounds to look at on this 217km² small island !
28 passage graves, 60 long barrows, 30 cairns and 200 Bronze Age mounds are all witnesses of a widely populated ancient Møn. Of the 28 passage graves only 5 are preserved today and many of the other ancient monuments have been destroyed due to farming, but still we have aprox.173 left to enjoy.
