Hallo, some days ago I went on the Drielandepunt between BE , DE and NL. I was able to get a bill from the Belgian side and from the Dutch side (alas, in Germany anything but wood ).
The Belgian side is in the municipality of Gemmeinch, postal code 4851, the Dutch part is in the municipality of Vaals, postal code 6290 or 6291 with two final letters: someone may help me to find the correct postal code for the Dutch side? Thank you very much

De street leading to the "Drielandenpunt" has four codes. The nearest to the point is 6291 BX.

Very nice, but I would change the location to Vaals 6291 BX and Kelmis/Calamine 4851. Drielandenpunt is not a official placename.

Is it in Kelmis municipality?
I supposed it was in Gemmeinch one

mmmmhhhh... I have to check that

The "drielandenpunt" has been a border with four countries from 1816-1920. Moresnet was the fourth country. Moresnet is now part of the municipality of Kelmis, the other part of Belgium is indeed Gemmenich.
Also Neu-Moresnet (part of municipality) has a border at the "drielandenpunt"

Moresnet

And it is for the memory of the Neutral Moresnet that they did a mistake in Esperanto?
The write on the pannel in Esperanto means "neutral(adj) of the border(adj) Moresnet(noum) " : words in -a , in Esperanto, are adjectives!

claudio: the place of your picture (walking pad) is located in Vaals (Netherlands): the panel showing a walking pad is a dutch one.

in "Trois bornes"/"drielandenpunt", you can enter bills in NL and in B, not in Germany: there is no shop on german side.
NL: bar/terrace/resto close to Wilhelmina tower, also bar/terrace/resto "de bokkerijder" :location: Vaals
B: bar/terrace/friture close to Baudouin tower: location: Gemmenich (no shop on territory of La Calamine)

[an-148]

the use of esperanto on your second panel is due to the fact that the territory of Moresnet-neutre tried to introduce esperanto as official language (without success)

Last saturday, there was an article in the paper edition of the Leeuwarder Courant. Unfortunately, this article was not published on the online version of the newspaper...
