The Communauté d'agglomération des Trois Frontières was a French association of municipalities with the legal form of a Communauté d'agglomération in the Haut-Rhin department in the Grand Est region . The community association was founded on October 30, 2000 and consisted of ten communities. The administrative seat was in Saint-Louis . Trois Frontiéres means three borders and meant the three borders that come together in the triangle : the community bordered on Germany in the east ( district of Lörrach ) and on Switzerland in the south (cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft ).
In terms of spatial planning, the ten municipalities form the French part of the Basel agglomeration .
