D27

Großsteingrab Borger is a megalithic passage grave belonging to the western group of the Funnel Beaker culture. It stands at the northeastern edge of Borger, a district of Borger-Odoorn in the Dutch province of Drenthe. With a length of 22.6 m, it has the largest burial chamber of any surviving hunebed in the Netherlands.

The grave is aligned east-southeast to west-northwest. Its chamber is about 4.1 m wide and is built from 26 wall stones along the long sides, one closing stone at each end, and nine capstones. A short entrance passage, formed by two pairs of wall stones and one capstone, opens on the south side. No trace of the original stone enclosure remains. The monument was restored in 1937 and 1992 and has been a National Monument since 1992.

Titia Brongersma, Jan Laurens Lentinck, and Ludolph Smids examined the grave on 11 June 1685, producing the first documented excavation of a hunebed in the Netherlands. Later researchers included Albert Egges van Giffen, William Collings Lukis, Henry Dryden, and Willem Johannes de Wilde. The surviving grave received restorations in 1937 and 1992, and nearby Hunebedcentrum opened in 2005. In 2017, it was recorded through photogrammetry in a 3D atlas.

The grave contains 223 g of cremated human remains from two individuals of undetermined sex. One person was between 30 and 50 years old; the age of the other could not be determined. Finds also included Funnel Beaker pottery sherds dated by typology to about 3470–2760 v. Chr. and 51 g of burned animal bones, including some from cattle. It is also known as D27.
