• Swiss-side access only: on land you reach it through the Rhine harbor in Kleinhüningen, so plan the trip from Basel rather than from Germany or France
• A landing for passenger boats sits on the square, built along with a restaurant when the corner was redesigned around the pylon
• Three flags at the base, one for each country, make an easy photo with all three in frame

An 18.7-meter iron pylon from 1957 stands on the Rhine harbor quay in Kleinhüningen, marking where France, Germany and Switzerland meet. Its shape, by sculptor Wilhelm Münger, recalls a ship's propeller: three iron blades twist as they rise, with the three national flags at the base.

The true tripoint sits about 150 meters away in the middle of the Rhine.
