Exclusive burial mound - Excursion to the Celts on the Glauberg
Many exciting traces of the Celts have been preserved in the area around the large burial mound at the foot of the Glauberg. The tour guides will tell you about them on our new tour. Come with us on an excursion!
As the seat of Celtic rulers, the Glauberg is one of the most important archaeological sites of the Celts in Europe. The Glauberg success story began with the discovery of the large burial mound and the life-size statue. At the time, no one could have imagined that two completely undisturbed graves of Celtic rulers would be discovered during the excavations. Both contained 2400-year-old, extraordinary grave goods such as richly decorated gold jewelry, weapons and bronze jugs. The grave of the "Celtic prince of Glauberg" is world-famous among experts. But that's not all. During the exploration of the site, another untouched grave of a Celtic warrior and mysterious rampart trenches were discovered. These include the so-called "processional road" at burial mound 1, which is thought to be connected to astronomical observations during the Celtic period.
Afterwards, it is worth visiting the exhibition, where the original artefacts can be seen. And on the large outdoor terrace of our museum bistro, you can enjoy the magnificent view while savouring homemade cakes and regional dishes.
