The best-known megaliths in Saxony-Anhalt
Ordered by how much has been written about each place. The numbers match the map.
Two clusters account for most of this page. Around Haldensleben, the Großsteingrab Küsterberg, Großsteingrab Steineiche and Großsteingrab Teufelsküche are all within 3 km of the town, with the Kaisergrab just beyond. In the Altmark, the numbered tombs at Leetze, Lüdelsen, Tangeln and Diesdorf are 12 to 24 km from Salzwedel. Outliers include Großsteingrab Drosa near Köthen and Großsteingrab Bretsch 1 to 3, 17 to 19 km from Wittenberge.
RLQuest knows 109 named megalithic tombs in Saxony-Anhalt, and 88 of them have a Wikipedia article, four in five; castles (267) and observation towers (47) have their own pages. The Haldensleben group makes a tidy afternoon on foot. Set a quest, walk the circuit, and RLQuest confirms it from the track and colors in the forest tiles you passed through.

RLQuest knows these places too. Which means:
Some of your daily quests lead to a real place near you. The app uses your location to check you were really there.
If you're the first person in RLQuest to complete a quest at a place, it's your first find. The Place Book shows you which kinds of place you're still missing.
Every walk uncovers tiles, each about 350 m across. Over time you can see which corners you know well, and where you've never set foot.
