The Barrows by Skærup

In 1992, when a new stretch of motorway was to be established between the Little Belt Bridge and the E45, a large ploughed-over Bronze Age barrow was discovered near the village of Tårup. The 3400-year-old barrow had been constructed on the site of a Stone Age mound.

For traffic reasons, the mounds had to be re-located and now sit by the Skærup East rest area. During reconstruction, the two ancient mound were split and can today be viewed separately.
