Lohmar, Urban municipality in Rhein-Sieg District, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

Located 20 kilometers east of Cologne and 15 kilometers northeast of Bonn, Lohmar covers 65.5 square kilometers with an elevation of 64 meters.

Napoleon Bonaparte visited Lohmar in 1811 during his inspection of the army stationed in the Rhineland and stayed at Schloss Auel during his visit.

The town coat of arms displays a lion from Berg in its upper section and the meeting point of the Agger and Sülz rivers in the lower half.

Honrath railway station provides trains to Cologne every 30 minutes, with direct connections to Bundesautobahn 3 and Bundesautobahn 4 for road transportation.

Four castles mark the landscape of Lohmar, including Palace Auel which now functions as a hotel where guests can sleep in the same room Napoleon once occupied.
