Origin: Spangenberg is a 'name of origin,' relating to the town of Spangenberg, southeast of Kassel in Central Germany. In the Middle Ages, people started leaving the small villages of their birth and moving to towns. When they arrived in the towns all they were known by was their Chirstian name - Hans, Fritz, Klaus, etc. However, there were a lot of people named Hans and Fritz and Klaus. To differentiate from one another, they took their birth town as their surname. For example, Hans von Spangenberg. The 'von' indicates 'from.' Eventually, the 'von' was dropped from the name.
