Commentary

The Pansdorf grave mound, situated in a field east of the main road just north of Pansdorf, is a late Hallstatt Age burial site which was examined by the Lübeck forest warden and prehistorian Carl Hermann Haug in 1845. The mound, today measuring ca. 15 x 6 m and about 3 m high, was bordered with a row of stones on the inside and contained a circular area paved with fist-sized stones, under which a container of flat red sandstone slabs held the urn (Lisch 1870: 121).
