The Lohman Block is a site on the National Register of Historic Places located in Chinook, Montana. It was added to the register on March 19, 1980. The building previously housed a department store.

The building is named for businessman and rancher Andrew S. Lohman[2] who built the block. Originally a general merchandise store, with living quarters, the 1910 two-storey addition added several other businesses. The large brick building spurred commercial growth in early Chinook.[3]
