The first documented mention of the place comes from the year 1078. Borgloon was the capital of the county of Loon. Today Borgloon has just over 11,000 inhabitants.

In the Middle Ages Borgloon was the center of the county Loon. To this day, buildings in the market square and the remains of the city wall testify to this time. Today, the 11,000-inhabitant city is rather dreamy between Tongeren and Sint Truiden. A visit to the town should be accompanied by a tasting of Loonse Stroop (syrup), produced here in the traditional way from the yields of the surrounding orchards.
