Gettlinge Gravfält
Gettlinge gravfält
The largest prehistoric burial ground on Öland, with ship-shaped stone settings and a traditional windmill, stretching about 2 kilometers along a ridge.
The burial ground sits on a ridge at the western edge of the limestone steppe. It contains about 200 graves dating from the Bronze Age to the Viking Age, including a ship-shaped stone setting about 50 meters long and circular stone settings. Two traditional windmills stand beside it, making it a classic viewpoint for photographing the landscape of southern Öland. Entry is free. It is right next to the main road and can be visited together with Stora Alvaret and Ekeotop on the same day.
