As early as the late Middle Ages, the border of the former Aachen Empire, fortified with the Aachen Moat, ran from south to north across the ridge of the Vaalserberg. From 1839 to 1919, the Vaalserberg, with the disputed area of Neutral Moresnet as the fourth country, was even a four-country corner (Vierlandenpunt), which is still remembered in the name of the access road on the Dutch side - Viergrenzenweg. During the First World War, from 1915 to 1918, the high-voltage border barrier stretched along the Belgian-Dutch border for a length of 300 kilometers from the then four-country corner on the Vaalserberg to the Belgian North Sea coast near Knokke. The German invasion of Belgium in 1914 via Gemmenich to Diksmuide, which brought much suffering to the Belgian population, is commemorated by a memorial made of compressed war material at the southern tip of the Vaalserberg, called Via Dolorosa.

The Dreiländereck (het Drielandenpunt) in Vaals is the place where Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands meet. With a height of 323 meters it is also the highest point in the Netherlands (excluding the Caribbean states of the Kingdom of the Netherlands). The border triangle is not only an important symbolic and geographical place, it also offers many opportunities for entertainment.

The national borders between Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands run across the mountain; the border triangle (Dutch: Drielandenpunt) is located exactly on the summit. The mountain is therefore partly in North Rhine-Westphalia, in the Dutch province of Limburg and in Wallonia, with the German-speaking community of Belgium also having a share.

The Vaalserberg is located about five kilometers southwest of Aachen city center, two kilometers south of Aachen-Vaalserquartier and just as far south of Vaals. Kelmis and Gemmenich are on the Belgian side.

It was erected in 2014 on the 100th anniversary of the invasion by a non-profit peace initiative founded by women in 2011. Its members marched along parts of the route and collected money to erect the memorial sculptures.

About 120 m south of the border triangle runs the Gemmenich Tunnel (known in Belgium as the Botzela Tunnel), an approximately 870 m long, double-track tunnel built in 1872 for rail freight traffic on the Montzen Route in a northeast-southwest direction through the Vaalserberg.

In 1928, a border memorial was inaugurated on the German-Dutch-Belgian border. The memorial consists of three stones that used to stand on the border. When the new border was drawn in 1926, the three stones were replaced by one. The municipality of Vaals then re-erected the old stones away from the border as a historical landmark.

See also the highlight "Vaalser Berg". Here is the border between Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, today's border triangle. Between 1814 and 1918 there was the four-country corner between the above-mentioned states and the "neutral Moresnet", a small enclave that was coveted by everyone because of the extensive zinc ore deposits. Anyone interested in this part of local history can visit the "Vieille Montagne" museum in Kelmis. From here about 30' driving time.

A wonderful view over the Göhl to the Bois de Hees, which grows on the same Cretaceous geological deposits as our location. In clear weather, the railway viaduct over the Göhl valley can be seen. The highest and longest railway viaduct in Belgium, the main rail traffic artery between the Ruhr area and the port of Antwerp. The viaduct was blown up and rebuilt twice in World War II. It was completely renovated almost 20 years ago.
The landscape that opens up before us is characterized by dairy farming with lots of permanent grassland and distinctive hedgerows.

From 1839 to 1919, the three-country point was a four-country point. The Netherlands, Belgium and Prussia (later Germany) bordered here at the time on the mini-state Neutral Moresnet. After the First World War, Moresnet was added to Belgium and the current three-country point was created.

The "Drielandenpunt (Nl-BE-DE)" was the "Vierlandenpunt" until 1918, since "Neutral Moresnet" was added to the 3 aforementioned countries, which was administered jointly by Prussia and Belgium due to its zinc deposits. Since then, the former neutral little country, today's Kelmis, has been Belgian.
With the two lookout towers, you have stunning views over the entire NL-DE-BE border area. It is the highest point in the Netherlands, and climbing it by bike is a bit of a sporting challenge.

The Vaalserberg in Limburg is the highest mountain in the Netherlands with 322.70 meters, at the same time here is the border triangle of the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. There is usually a lot going on up here, but it is well worth a visit with the restaurants, a playground for children, a maze and observation tower.

From 1815, there have been five different national borders at the current Drielandenpunt near Vaals. Yet never more than four borders have converged at this point at a time. From 1839 to 1919, the three-country point was a four-country point. The Netherlands, Belgium and Prussia (later Germany) bordered here at the time on the mini-state Neutral Moresnet. After the First World War, various border corrections took place between Belgium and Germany and Neutral Moresnet was added to Belgium. Since then, the four-country point near Vaals has become a three-country point.
