The County of Ravensberg and the Bishoprics of Münster and Osnabrück met here in the Middle Ages and formed the border triangle. The state border between the kingdoms of Hanover and Prussia also passed here.

Today the course corresponds to the district borders of Gütersloh and Osnabrück as well as the state borders between North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony. Street names such as "An der Nord border", "Grenzweg" or "Zum Dreiländereck" are reminiscent of the historical importance of this border.

The triangle formed the border point between the old states of Münster, Osnabrück and Ravensberg. Today the three-country border has become a state border between Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia. However, the three districts of Osnabrück - Gütersloh - Warendorf meet here.
