Winter rain reveals three Bronze Age stone figures

Winter rains scrubbed a 3,400-year-old tomb, unveiling three stone figures.

Rain washed the stones during the winter, revealing three carved human figures on a southern closing stone.

These faces belong to the Steinkiste von Anderlingen. Some features remain chipped, what was especially true for the middle and right figures.

Constructed during the Early Bronze Age, this tomb stands as a stone marvel. It is the best-known stone chest in Germany.
