Wybelsum is a village in Lower Saxony, Germany. Located to the west of the city, it is administratively a district (German: Stadtteil) of Emden. The village was incorporated as such on 1 July 1972, as were the villages of Logumer Vorwerk and Twixlum.[1]
The village was mentioned in a document in 1348 as Wivelsum, probably a combination of the nickname Wifel and the suffix -um ('home'), therefore meaning "Wifel's home".[2]
The village has a church from 1700, which replaced the church of the village of Geerdsweer, which was abandoned after a storm surge in 1699.[3]
