Lohne, Urban municipality in Vechta, Germany

Lohne extends across 90 square kilometers of Lower Saxony terrain, featuring residential areas interspersed with industrial zones and agricultural lands at 44 meters elevation.

The municipality evolved from a rural settlement into an industrial center during the 1950s, when numerous plastics manufacturing companies established their operations in the region.

The Industrial Museum, opened in 2000, presents exhibitions about local manufacturing heritage, demonstrating the transformation from agricultural to industrial production methods.

The central market square hosts weekly gatherings every Thursday and Saturday, where local vendors sell fresh produce, regional specialties, and handcrafted goods.

The town contains protected natural areas including the Südlohner Moor, situated along the Weser-Ems watershed that divides the Hunte and Hase river catchment zones.
