Dolmen D30

Highlight • Historical Site

This dolmen is attributed to the Funnelbeaker culture, the collective name of a number of communities that lived in this area in the New Stone Age. It is perhaps no surprise that the pottery consisted mainly of funnel beakers. Evidence has been found that pottery containing remains of the funeral meal was buried in the grave. The serifs of dozens of pots have been found in the burial vault of dolmen D30, which was located at a depth of one meter.

Glacier pit Ees

Highlight • Natural Monument

Here in front of you you see an oval/round depression in the field. Colloquially, this dry pingo ruin is also called a 'glacier pit'. And that is not without reason. Pingo ruins are the remains of a so-called pingo, a hill that was created by pushing ice during the last ice age (about 20,000 years ago). When this ice melted, a crater filled with water remained, which then became filled with peat. In some places, however, the craters remained dry because the bottom consisted of coarse sand in which water could not remain. The pingo ruin near Ees is such an example.

It's definitely even more beautiful when the heather blooms in August/September.
