Lohavan is one of the 12 forests of Vraja. Here, Satrughna, younger brother of Lord Rama, killed Lohajanghasura.
This Lohavan is also the battlefield where Krsna fought and defeated Jarasandha. Today we heard that each time Jarasandha was defeated by Krsna he would return home, gather a new army, and engage Brahmans to perform yajnas, etc, to hopefully ensure victory against the Lord. However, he was defeated 17 times by the Him.
http://prabhupadabooks.com/kb/1/49
After the 17th time, Jarasandha threatened to kill the Brahmans if he again lost the fight. So, the Brahmans wrote to Krsna and asked His help. This is one of the reasons why Krsna chose to run away from the 18th battle against Jarasandha and earn Himself the name Ranachora. Radha Gopinath Mandir. This is a famous temple in Lohavan with deties of Radha Gopinath.

I sing about that victorious one , who is the destroyer of enemies.
Who holds the bow as well as quiver full of arrows ,
Who is pretty and stands with humility on the left side of Lord Rama,
Who has been taught by Rama with his own hands , who carries his great form,
Who shines like Sun and fans Rama in the hall of audience.
