Lohmar

Lohmar is a town in Rhein-Sieg District in North Rhine-Westphalia situated between two rivers in a gently rolling landscape. The place sits between Cologne and Bonn, both accessible by rail and road from here.

The town grew where two rivers meet and became an important local center over many centuries. Several castles in the area show that this region held political and economic power for a long time.

The town emblem features a lion from Berg in the upper part and shows where the Agger and Sülz rivers come together below. This coat of arms tells the story of the local connections that shaped the place.

Regular trains from the local station connect this town to Cologne and other places in the region. Those driving will find the main highways nearby and relatively easy to access.

One of the castles here now operates as a hotel where guests can spend the night in rooms that hold stories from the early 1800s. This place lets visitors experience living history in a setting that once hosted important military figures.
