The King Baudouin Tower or Boudewijn Tower is a 50 meter high observation tower, located on the Belgian part of the Vaalserberg near the Drielandenpunt. The tower is intended for tourists.
In 1970, a 33-meter-high Baudouin Tower was built on Belgian territory near the Three-Country Point. It was constructed from two former French radar stations. In 1993, this structure was demolished and a new tower with a height of 50 meters was built with both an outside metal staircase and an elevator.

From this observation tower you can see all three countries, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany.
Actually 4, neutral Moresnet (a dwarf state) was once also included. Now Moresnet is part of Belgium
