The geographical center of Europe is located in Transcarpathia, in the village of Dilov, in the Rakhiv region, on the banks of the Tisza River near the border with Romania.

Here stands a stele with a geodesic sign on which words are written in Latin denoting the following:

"Permanent, precise, eternal place. The center of Europe was established in 1887, the place was measured very accurately using a special device with a scale of meridians and parallels, made in Austria-Hungary. "
