Dreiländermuseum / Musée des Trois Pays
The Three-Countries Museum, just a few kilometres from Basel, has made the Three Countries Corner its theme. In the permanent exhibition, visitors can view the history and present of this border region in a trinational context for the first time.
Since the 20th century, people here have lived together in one region and at the same time on the fringes of three states. How did this region come to be divided into three parts? How did the people live with the border always within reach - and how do the borders affect politics, economy and the everyday life of the population today? What separates people, what connects them across borders?
The Three-Countries Museum takes visitors on a journey through the region.
