Byfang
Byfang is a southeastern borough of the city of Essen, Germany. It was incorporated into the city in 1929. Around 2,000 people live in Byfang, and it still has the character of a village.[1] The name derives from befangen or umfangen, which means to surround, to enfold, because it has been a settlement surrounded by forest.
