Abstract: On the south side of Balaton near Szolad 24 graves of the Langobard period were excavated. Within them were 18 men, five male children / youths as well as five women and a girl. The finds date to the time between AD 526 and 568. The circular ditches and square grave enclosures are quite unusual. With reference to the grave construction, ledges in the side walls of the graves were identified, which served in part to support wooden beamed grave coverings. In male grave 13, which had been disturbed, a horse was deposited on the wooden beams. An excursus presents Langobard-period settlement finds, discovered at three find spots, which are unique for this period in Hungary, up until now.
