Lank-Latum, Administrative district in Meerbusch, Germany.

Located between Düsseldorf, Krefeld, Duisburg, and Neuss on the left bank of the Lower Rhine, Lank-Latum extends across residential neighborhoods at 34 meters elevation.

The district emerged from the medieval parish of Lank, which transferred from the Count of Kleve to the Electorate of Cologne in 1392.

The area preserves two distinct local dialects: Länkter Platt in Lank and Lotumer Platt in Latum, representing ancient Franconian speech patterns.

The district maintains a population of 9,644 residents and connects to major urban centers through regional transportation networks.

The district features a water tower from 1912 with a distinctive 6-meter diameter steel sphere reservoir, built following the establishment of a celluloid factory.
