lithuania poland prussia tricountry point from 1545 to 1569
remained a binational tripoint til 1795
& appears to be fully retired today

located just north of grajewo poland
between the villages of prostki & bogusze
at roughly n53d41m30s e22d26m59s

the whitewashed brick shrine seems an afterthought
& the brass coats of arms & latin inscriptions attached to it are probably
reproductions of lost originals
but the rocks near the base are most likely the real thing
& the lost tripoint lay perhaps midway between them
