Most of the Hunebeds are isolated, but sixteen are grouped in eight pairs and six other form two groups of three. Here in Bronneger are five Hunebeds within 200m: a pair (D21 Bronneger and D22 Bronneger) and a trio (D23 Bronneger, D24 Bronneger and D25 Bronneger). And as if that were not enough, two more burial mounds are only about 150m west of D25 Bronneger. So this location must have been a very important spot sometime in history.
The easternmost D21 Bronneger, as well as the westernmost D25 Bronneger Hunebeds are the best preserved ones, whereas D22 Bronneger is the smallest Hunebed in The Netherlands, as only two capstones is all that remains.
But both groups are located in a scenic and idyllic setting, which absolutely justify a visit.
