Description Barrow near Grabau, Schleswig-Holstein.
Interesting: The name 'Grabau' is combined of 'Grab'(tomb) and 'Au'(old german word for creek)

Yeah, there is a group of four barrows on that field [link] The one on the photo is bottom right, taken from the street.
But don't worry, these tombs are very old, from the Bronze Age.

Unfortunately, they weren't Celts, this region was populated just by some ancient german tribes

Maybe it was a kind of architectural style which was copied by different folks
