Vlotho, Town in Herford district, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

The municipality stretches along the Weser River, encompassing several districts including Uffeln, Valdorf, and Exter at an elevation of 109 meters.

In 1248, Vlotho received city status but later lost it due to population decline from disease and warfare before regaining independence in 1719.

The Kulturfabrik serves as the primary venue for community gatherings, artistic performances, and social events throughout the calendar year.

The construction of Vlotho station in 1875 and the replacement of the ferry with a bridge in 1928 improved transportation accessibility.

The Bonstapel, reaching 342 meters in height, stands as the highest geographical point in the southeastern section of the municipality.
