In 1719, a village school in Löhnen was first mentioned in the Götterswickerhammer church register. The current building, complete with a teacher's apartment, was occupied in 1826. Friedrich Haastert served as the school's first teacher for almost 50 years, until 1871.
Löhnen is considered the southernmost terp village in Germany, with individual farms built on small mounds of earth. Löhnen's low elevation repeatedly led to flooding of the entire village whenever the Rhine carried too much water. The last major flood in 1926 caused much fear and anxiety and caused the Löhnen school community considerable material loss.
