At the Dreiherrnstein, the territories of the Duchy of Westphalia, Nassau-Siegen, and Wittgenstein-Hohenstein met. The large triangular stone on the Wildborn is marked with a Wolfsangel on the Nassau side, a large W on the Wittgenstein side, and a cross on the Electoral Cologne side. In 1817, Prussia formed the districts of Olpe, Siegen, and Wittgenstein. The old territorial borders thus became mere district borders in the newly founded Province of Westphalia. Today, the former "three-country corner" is a border point between the districts of Olpe and Siegen-Wittgenstein. For centuries, bitter and sometimes even fatal border conflicts with destruction and theft of wood, tools, and livestock raged along this territorial border. To this day, this old border is characterized not only by the Rothaarkamm ridge but also by the confluence of Saxon and Franconian cultural and confessional influences.

Heinsberg Heath

Highlight • Natural

We stayed here on a lovely sunny evening in late summer. The heathland creates a great atmosphere, especially from the beginning of August to mid-September, when the common heather is in bloom.

Take off your shoes and sit down. A wonderful refreshment, but the water is really nice and cold.

Short and unspectacular hike in a quiet and beautiful hiking area.
