Kommunen Metelen ligger i Münsterlandets parklandskab, der er præget af en kontrast mellem sandjord og fugtige områder. Gennem byen flyder Vechte.
Stedet går tilbage til det i 889 grundlagte kloster Metelen. Dette rige-universitetskloster prægede udviklingen af landsbyen i middelalderen og den tidlige moderne tid indtil sekulariseringen i 1810/1811. Rundt om klosteret udviklede der sig gradvist en bebyggelse, hvor der i 1337 allerede var et marked. I 1591 fik stedet en indhegning med vold og grav; fire porte gav adgang. Siden det 17. århundrede har tekstilindustrien spillet en afgørende økonomisk rolle. I 1973 var denne periode slut med lukningen af den sidste tekstilvirksomhed.
