Swiss Activities Tip

At 2160 m above sea level, the Dreibündenstein marks the common border point of the former Free State of the Three Rhaetian Confederations:

  • the Grey Confederation with the then judicial municipality of Rhäzüns
  • the ten-court alliance with the court municipality of Churwalden
  • the Gotteshausbund (Ortenstein Castle)

The present stele was erected in 915 and is 15 m high. The old boundary stone from 1722 is today in the Rhaetian Museum in Chur.
