Euroregion Nisa, also Euroregion Nisa - Neisse - Nysa, is the first Euroregion created in Central and Eastern Europe, established in 1991.[1] It covers parts of Czech northern Bohemia (mainly the Liberec Region), the German Free State of Saxony and the Polish Lower Silesian Voivodeship.[2]

Euroregion is a voluntary interest association of municipalities and districts of the tripoint of the Czech Republic, Germany and Poland. It was founded to support the development of these areas in the form of mutual, cross-border cooperation.[1]

The representatives of the three countries approved a Memorandum determining the next steps in the creation of the region at the "Tripoint Conference on 23–⁠25 May 1991". In June 1991, a tripartite working group was created, which proposed a structure model which is the basis for the work to this day. The very founding of the Euroregion took place in Zittau on 21 December 1991.[3] Since 2004, it has been headquartered in the most important city of the Euroregion, Liberec. The Euroregion is represented in all three countries –⁠ in Zittau in Germany, Jelenia Góra in Poland and Liberec in the Czech Republic (the chairman of the Euroregion is the governor of the Liberec Region).[1][2][4]
