  Stadtlohn Information
Stadtlohn is a city in the north-west of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, part of the district Borken.
The name Stadtlohn (literally "City-Lohn") is first mentioned in 1389 after the small town Nordlohn was secured by a moat, a defensive wall and gates and gained the city rights.
In 1584 Stadtlohn was pillaged by the troops of Duke Ernest of Bavaria and again in 1588 by Dutch soldiers.
