<div id="ygrps-yiv-330883067"><blockquote><span title="ireply">&gt;       1. Former Belgian-German border in Burg-Reuland?<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>Burg-Reuland is 10km due south of St Vith and 4km west of the current Belg-Ger boundary in the Our. The former German railroad enclave at Hemmeres is 4km NE of Burg-Reuland.<br/>
The town seems to be halfway between the boundary of 1815-1920, and that of 1920-present. Van Wettere-Verhasselt&#39;s &quot;Les frontiers du nord et de l&#39;est de la Belgique&quot; has a map of the linguistic and historical boundaries, and shows no line anywhere near the town, only along the two boundaries mentioned above.<br/>
<br/>
Thus I have no evidence that even suggests any boundary in the vicinity of Berg Reuland at all, esp not 10 years ago!<br/>
