A Dreiherrenstein or Dreiherrnstein is the topographic name of a historical tripoint, especially in the German-speaking lands of central Europe, i.e a place where the border of three princely territories met, together with any enclosures or border fortifications. The word means literally "Three Lords' Stone".

This border triangular stone is from 1750. It divided the three estates - Sohland, Lipova and Wehrsdorf.

The stone is located right on the current Czech-German border.
