To discover on the trail

Parc du Doubs

Borne des Trois Evêchés

In former days the bishops of Basel, Besançon and Lausanne used to meet in the middle of the river, where the border stone still projects out of the water. Since then it is called "Borne des Trois Évêchés" (bollard of the three bishoprics)
