Request boundary determination and demarcation 
You cannot agree with your neighbor on the boundary line? Or you want to build a garage exactly on the border? Then you can have your property boundary officially determined.
-
Basic information
The location of the boundaries of your property is documented in the real estate cadastre. With the help of this proof, the course of the boundary is precisely determined on site by a surveyor and permanently marked with boundary signs, such as boundary stones, plastic marks, chisel crosses or similar. Deviations from existing boundary installations, such as fences, are documented. You and all involved neighbors will be invited to an appointment on site. There, all parties involved will be informed about the result of the boundary determination and demarcation. The result of the boundary determination and demarcation is recorded in a document. This document has evidentiary value in court. Upon request, you will receive a copy of this document.
Note: Boundary markers, also called "Abmarkungen", are under special legal protection. Anyone who deliberately removes or changes them is liable to prosecution.
