Dansk: Ib Andersens tegning af Stenvaddyssen prydede den danske 50 kr. seddel op gennem 1950’erne og 1960’erne. Imidlertid gjorde tegningen dyssen til et populært udflugtsmål. Men mangel på P-plads og sti til fortidsmindet bevægede ejeren til at rejse fredningssag for at skabe adgang til seværdigheden. Sagen blev rejst i Fredningsnævnet, som afsagde kendelse i 1961. Resultatet er, at der i dag findes en lille P-plads med informationstavle på Stendyssevej 1 km nordvest for Stenvad. Herfra fører en smal sti ned i en dal og siden op til den smukke langdysse. Midtvejs har ejeren sat borde og bænke op ved en lille sø. Husk at tage affald med tilbage i bilen.

English: Ib Andersens drawing of stoneage dolmen Stenvaddyssen was on the cover of danish bank note from the 50's and 60's. Making the site a popular place to visit.
