Dreiländerecke bei Sankt Anna am Aigen, Boundary point at Sankt Anna am Aigen, Austria and Slovenia.
Dreiländerecke bei Sankt Anna am Aigen is a boundary point where Austria and Slovenia meet. Stone markers placed here indicate the international border between the two countries.
The site marks the former border between the Duchy of Styria and the Kingdom of Hungary under Habsburg rule. After World War I, the border was redrawn to reflect new political boundaries between modern nations.
The border monument represents the territorial changes following the Treaties of Saint-Germain and Trianon, which redefined national boundaries after World War I.
The site is reachable via several hiking trails that depart from nearby villages. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and check weather conditions, as the area is open and hilly.
The original 18th-century boundary marker, the Maria Theresa Stone, differs in location from the current border stone placed about 40 meters to the northwest. This difference shows how surveying methods and border definitions have shifted over time.
