Kong Asgers Høj is a large passage grave on the island of Møn in Denmark [1]. The megalithic structure dated to Neolithic Funnel Beaker culture [1]. The grave consists of a chamber (10 m long by 2 m wide) with a long passage (7.5 m long) [1]. Study of King Asger Høj began in 1839, when the Danish merchant Gustav Hage tried to find a treasure but found it empty [1]. The grave is structurally untouched since ancient times, but may have been cleared then [1].
