Forhistorisk tid: Jelshøj og Tulshøj

Kulturmiljø in Denmark

Jelshøj (128 m) and Tulshøj (112 m) are Bronze Age burial mounds crowning the highest points in the Holme Bjerge ridge system south of Aarhus, with Jelshøj being the municipality's highest point. The mounds probably date from the early Bronze Age (1800-1000 BCE) and are among the few surviving burial mounds in the area. The area was protected in 1967, and a geodetic monument on top of Jelshøj has been in place since 1873.
