Kiviksgraven

TIME : 2016/2/19 0:37:23

Believed to be a site of ancient human sacrifice, Kiviksgraven is Sweden’s largest Bronze Age grave, dating from around 1000 BC. It’s an extraordinary shield-like cairn, about 75m in diameter, which once contained a burial cist and eight engraved slabs. What you see inside are replicas; the tomb was looted in the 18th century.

The on-site cafe sells delicious sweet treats like raspberry crumble.
