Spaak is a family originating from Bohuslän, Sweden, with notable branches in Belgium, France and Italy.[1]

Paul-Henri Spaak (1899–1972), Belgian statesman and one of the founding fathers of the European Union (1937).

Elias Jonæ Spaak (1650–1728), enrolled at Lund University in 1683 and subsequently postmaster and deputy customs chief inspector of Uddevalla, Bohuslän, assumed the family name in accordance with that of his residence. Among his issue were Protestant reformer Peter Spaak (1696–1769), and Magnus Spaak (1699–1768), who emigrated to Brussels, Belgium. Among Magnus Spaak's issue was Jacques Joseph Spaak (1742–1825), painter.
