Bahr is a hamlet in the Dutch province of Gelderland.[1] It is located in the municipality Zevenaar, about 3 km southeast of Rheden.[2]

According to the 19th-century historian A.J. van der Aa,[3] it had about 170 inhabitants in the middle of the 19th century. The large castle "Bahr" was located here, until it was demolished after a siege in 1495.
