Goch, Urban municipality in Kleve district, Germany

Goch extends across 115 square kilometers of North Rhine-Westphalia terrain, encompassing eight distinct neighborhoods including Asperden, Hassum, and Pfalzdorf.

Following extensive damage during Operation Veritable in World War II, the town underwent reconstruction while maintaining elements of its medieval architecture.

The town maintains active partnerships with Andover in England, Meierijstad in Netherlands, Nowy Tomyśl in Poland, and Redon in France.

Residents and visitors access municipal services through the central administration building, which operates under postal code 47574 and telephone code 02823.

The ancestral lineage of painter Vincent van Gogh traces back to Goch, connecting this German municipality to Dutch artistic heritage.
