Hjelm Passage Grave

In beautiful surroundings lies this big passage grave which unfortunately is in decay.

The path to the grave is overgrown with hawthorn-bushes, and only the top of the entrance is visible. It is as good as impossible to enter the chamber now.

The chamber is 9 meters long and was excavated in the year 1853 by one of the country's leading archaeologist, J.J.A. Worsaae.

 
The entrance photografed in the summer of 2001 by JHe, now as you can see the entrance is almost completely covered.
