- Lahn est une ancienne ville dans la Hesse, en Allemagne. Elle fut fondée le 1er janvier 1977, par la fusion des villes de Giessen et Wetzlar. On lui a alors donné le nom de la rivière Lahn, afin de faire une fusion sur pied d'égalité. Cependant, comme la fusion était très impopulaire — elle avait été imposée sur les villes contre la volonté de presque tous les habitants — la ville fut rescindée le 31 juillet 1979, de sorte que la ville de Lahn n'a existé que durant deux ans et demi.

- Lahn ialah nama sebuah kota yang dibentuk pada 1 Januari 1977 saat dua kota bertetangga, Giessen dan Wetzlar, digabungkan. Kota ini dinamai menurut nama sebuah sungai yang bernama Lahn agar membuat kota yang digabungkan setara. Namun karena penggabungan ini tidak populer dan tidak efisien – karena dipaksakan terhadap harapan hampir seluruh penduduknya – kota ini ditinggalkan pada 31 Juli 1979; sehingga kota ini hanya ada selama 2,5 tahun.

- Lahn era una città tedesca, esistita dal 1977 al 1979 nel Land dell'Assia. Nata dall'unione delle città di Gießen e Wetzlar, e di altri 14 comuni minori, la città fu sciolta dopo soli due anni per le proteste dei cittadini (particolarmente quelli di Wetzlar, divenuta in pratica un centro subordinato a Gießen).

- Lahn was a district-free city in the state of Hesse, which was created on January 1, 1977 during the Hessian administrative reform when the two cities of Gießen and Wetzlar were merged. It was named after the river Lahn to make the merger one of equals. However, as the merger was very unpopular as well as inefficient—it had been imposed on the cities against the will of almost all inhabitants—it was rescinded on July 31, 1979; so the city Lahn only existed for two and a half years. The creation of the city was supported by the Minister-President of Hesse Albert Osswald, who had been the Lord Mayor of Gießen from 1957 to 1963 and saw the new city as "work of the century" (Jahrhundertwerk), believing that it would strengthen central Hesse against the two major population center of Kassel in the north and Frankfurt in the south of the state. The new city was created out of the then district-free city of Gießen, the municipality of Heuchelheim from the Giessen district, and fourteen municipalities from the Wetzlar district - Wetzlar, Atzbach, Dutenhofen, Garbenheim, Hermannstein, Krofdorf-Gleiberg, Launsbach, Lützellinden, Münchholzhausen, Nauborn, Naunheim, Steindorf, Waldgirmes and Wißmar. At the time of creation (January 1, 1977), the city had an estimated population of 156,000 on an area of 225.57 km2 (73,600 in Lahn-Gießen, 49,600 in Lahn-Wetzlar, 10,400 in Lahn-Wettenberg, 7,800 in Lahn-Lahntal, 8,100 in Lahn-Dutenhofen and 7,100 in Lahn-Heuchelheim). The city was assigned the license plate area code L. Originally, L was planned for Leipzig, then in the East Germany, but at the time, chances for reunification seemed slim. Some critics saw it as provocation by the federal level social-liberal coalition, some even as a de facto recognition as the division of Germany. However, the merger quickly proved to be unpopular, especially in the part of Wetzlar. According to the 27 May 1970 census, Gießen had a population of 75,555, about twice Wetzlar's 36,922, enough for Wetzlar residents to consider the merger to be subordination to Gießen. In addition to that, the merger was done rather awkwardly, as the new city had no clear central functional orientation, but two city cores which co-existed and competed with each other, with completely different characters: Lahn-Gießen was an administrative, university and shopping district, while Lahn-Wetzlar was an industrial and shopping district. The city cores were approximately 15 kilometers apart, and the territory in-between (today municipalities of Heuchelheim and Lahnau) was rather sparsely populated with village-like districts, making networking and differentation of functions very difficult. The Wetzlar residents feared their city would be structurally crushed by the larger Gießen and end up degenerating into Gießen's dormitory town. The feeling was further reinforced by the postal codes - the new city kept using Gießen's postal code of 6300. However, letters to Gießen would be addressed as "6300 Lahn 1" and to Wetzlar as "6300 Lahn 2". In addition, the areas between Gießen and Wetzlar feared that the areas would be robbed of their character by a large expansion of building areas, increasing the traffic congestion between the two cities. In addition, the name "Lahn" was not liked. Originally, it was planned to name the town Gießen-Wetzlar, but instead Lahn was chosen so that the villages could append their names. However, it was felt that the name "Lahn" lacked history. Cars soon started sporting bumper stickers "Wenn ich Lahn seh, krieg ich Zahnweh" (When I see 'Lahn', I get a toothache), even Bundeskanzler Helmut Schmidt criticized the naming as "I can't imagine anything under a Lotte in Lahn" (Unter einer Lotte in Lahn kann ich mir nichts vorstellen) (alluding to both the character Lotte in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther and Thomas Mann's novel Lotte in Weimar: The Beloved Returns based on the same story). The creation of the city led to political consequences - SPD, which had been instrumental in pushing the reform, lost the local elections in March 1977, in favor of CDU candidates, who ran as opponents to the Lahn city. CDU succeeded in winning a majority of 50.7% of the vote in Lahn and Wilhelm Runtsch was elected mayor. He died already on 20 August 1977, and was replaced by Hans Görnert, who after the city's dissolution would remain the mayor of the city of Gießen until 1985. Just 31 months after the creation, on August 1, 1979 the city was dissolved. Gießen did not regain its former district-free status and was incorporated into the eponymous district, while Wetzlar was incorporated into the newly-formed Lahn-Dill-Kreis and became its seat. In addition, the municipality of Heuchelheim was restored in Gießen district, and two new municipalities were created - Wettenberg in the Gießen district and Lahnau in the Lahn-Dill-Kreis. Also in January 1, 1981, the central Hesse (Gießen area) was separated from the Darmstadt region and assigned to its own Giessen region. Following Lahn's dissolution, the Lahn-Dill-Kreis originally retained the city's license plate code L. However, with the German reunification on November 3, 1990, L was reassigned to Leipzig and the district was issued new code LDK. Also on July 1, 2012, the city of Wetzlar received its own code WZ. Since May 2014, the residents of Lahn-Dill-Kreis (except city of Wetzlar) can also obtain plates with old distinguishing code DIL. The only way to determine if a car with a L plate was registered in Hesse or Saxony is by the identification number. In addition, some vehicle owners also used the sticker with text "L – aber nicht aus Leipzig!" ("L - but not from Leipzig!") (en)
