This is one of the largest passage graves in Denmark. The passage grave in Kong Asger Høj is about 10.0 m long next to Listrup on Falster (min. 13 m), Græse (12.5 m) on Zealand, Kong Svends Høj (12.3 m) on Lolland, Gundestrup 2 (12.0 m), Rævehøj from Vester Egesborg (11.5 m), Birkehøj (11 m, both on Zealand) and Jordehøj on Møn and Mårhøj on Funen (each 10 m) one of the largest passage graves (Danish Jættetestue) in Denmark. In Sweden, only Swedish Falbygden (e.g. Ragnvald's tomb at 16 meters) has longer chambers. In Germany (De hoogen Steener with 28.0 m) and the Netherlands (e.g. D27 in Borger with 22.5 m), the so-called Emsland chambers are sometimes much longer.
