Steenbergen [ˈsteːmbɛrɣə(n)] is a village in the Netherlands and is part of the Noordenveld municipality in Drenthe.
[3][4] The village was first mentioned in 1531 as "van Steenberghen" which means "mountain of stone" and is a reference to the dolmen.
[4] D1 was first described in a journal by Nicolaus Westendorp in 1811,[6] however given the etymology it was discovered much earlier.
In 1997, a fire was lit underneath the stones which caused one of the capstones to crack.
[6] There's another little dolmen in the village, however it has been constructed by a local resident, and is fake.
