Description

Five stones for Europe
The Europe Monument, erected in 1977, is located just outside the village of Ouren, at the confluence of the Ribbach and the Our. The location was deliberately chosen : the region where the borders of Luxembourg, Germany and Belgium come together. Three municipalities, Heinerscheid in Luxembourg, Arzfeld in Germany and Burg-Reuland in Belgium, purchased the site for the monument composed of five boulders from five European countries.
