Yes, that "unnamed division of land " is Moresnet.
 
Cees Damen provides detailed information about Moresnet on www.moresnet.nl
Jannis Deeleman specialises in the bordermarkers around this tripoint (www.grenspalen.com), unfortunately only in Dutch
On www.grenspalen.nl there's a page on the bordermarkers of Moresnet
 
The BeDeLu - tripoint has some tourist facilities like information boards, parkings etc. but seems less visited.

Following a recent visit, (photos to come) I would like some more information ( have there been previous measages regarding this interesting tri-point?). I believe that it was once the worlds only 4 nation point when Neutaal Moresnet existed. Markings on the ground at this site suggest an unnamed division of land .Is this Moresnet?
 
The whole are here seems to designed  for border fresks, being a tourist area based on the point. Do other tourist type tri points exist?
