ライペルディンゲンの天然記念物・トップ7

Information boards tell you about the cultivation of river mussels here in the Our.

The monument owes its existence to the President of the Association of the Eifel and Ardennes, Georg Wagner, who suggested its construction as a member of parliament and President of the Chamber in Luxembourg. The memorial consists of four stones bearing the names of the »pioneers for a united Europe« (Konrad Adenauer, Joseph Bech, Paul-Henri Spaak and Robert Schuman). The memorial stones come from the respective countries of origin of the named founding fathers. Gneiss boulder from the Lüneburg Heath for Adenauer, a sandstone block from the Müllerthal-Waldbillig for Bech, blue slate from the High Fens for Spaak and a slate block from the Vosges for Schuman. The fifth stone represents the Treaties of Rome and the signatories from the six countries involved. Near the European Monument and directly at the actual three-country point, a pedestrian bridge connecting Germany and Belgium leads over the Our, which was named after Georg Wagner.

Dreiländerpunkt DE, BE, LUX, beautiful place to remember that we all belong together

Just outside of Ouren, at the confluence of the Ribbach and Our, the European Monument has stood since 1977. The location was chosen with care: we are in the border triangle of Luxembourg, Germany and Belgium. Three municipalities, Heinerscheid in Luxembourg, Arzfeld in Germany and Burg-Reuland in Belgium, bought the grounds for the monument, which consists of five boulders from five European countries.
