Bolmers högar

The Bolmers högar are two striking Early Bronze Age burial mounds located in the Steglarp burial ground in Vellinge Municipality. With diameters of roughly 25 to 26 meters and heights of 4 to 4.5 meters, they are among the largest surviving mound complexes of this era in Scandinavia. As the northern part of a group of twelve mounds, their impressive dimensions suggest the burial of prominent individuals. Here you'll experience a unique landscape, since the mounds lie very close together. Traces of tunnels dug into the mounds point to earlier looting. The protected heritage site is crossed by an old dirt road that provides access to this historic place.
