Austria–Czech Republic–Slovakia tripoint, Border marker in Lanžhot, Czech Republic
The tripoint lies at the confluence of the Morava and Thaya rivers in the southern tip of the Dyje Triangle, within the cadastral area of Lanžhot. The Morava forms the Czech-Slovak and Austrian-Slovak borders, the Thaya the Czech-Austrian border. The confluence is also the southernmost point of Moravia.
The current borders took shape in 1993 when Czechoslovakia dissolved and split into two independent nations. This transformed the former Austrian-Czechoslovak boundary into a place where three countries meet.
The name Trojmezí means "tripoint" in Czech, and the site lies in the Lanžhot cadastral area at the Morava–Thaya confluence. A boundary stone of the Margraviate of Moravia, dated 1755, stands northwest of the confluence, marking the old Moravian border.
