Wehl is a town in the eastern Netherlands, about 5 km west of Doetinchem.
Wehl was a part of Prussia until 1808, when it was joined to the Netherlands. In those years it was officially a part of Zeddam. Wehl became an independent municipality in 1813, when it was given back to Prussia; in 1816, it returned to the Netherlands. It remained an independent municipality until the municipal reorganization on 1 January 2005, when Wehl became part of the larger neighbouring municipality of Doetinchem.[1]
The former municipality also included the village of Nieuw-Wehl, 3 km to the west.
