The Dreiherrenstein is a standing stone in Reichshof (North-Rhine Westphalia/Germany). At least since late Medieval times, it was used as a marker stone for changing territorial and political borders. Its location roughly corresponds to the crossing of two historic trade routes, the Brüderstraße (also called Nutscheid) and the Römerstraße (or Hillweg).

The stone is unusually large for a marker stone of this area. It has a height of 1.60 m above the ground and reaches at least 1 m into the ground. Its diameter is 0.70 m. It has been speculated that it original might have been a menhir.
