The oldest written mention of Bocholt dates back to 1162. But the oldest traces of human presence in our municipality can be found in Kaulille: after all, there are four burial mounds dating from the Iron Age (10,000 B.C.) there.
Bocholt is a relatively small municipality, but several beautiful, historic and valuable buildings remain. They are silent witnesses to our rich past. Find out what sights to visit in this area.
