Surname
The name Valareslebo mentioned in 942 is composed of two parts. The ending -leb-o, or nowadays -leben , which is widespread in East Westphalian , goes back to the Germanic term “laiba”, which means something like “inheritance, property”. The owner of this land, namely "Valares", contributed the first part for the name of the place or the settlement.
history
The oldest traces of a settlement in the area of today's city are archaeological finds from around 200 BC. Chr. The place Valareslebo with St. Michael church was 942 for the first time in a document of King I. Otto mentioned. In the 12th century it belonged to the Counts of Wohldenberg , who had received it as a fief from the Archbishop of Magdeburg . In 1337 they handed it over to the Dukes of Braunschweig and Lüneburg, along with the associated villages and the Papenteich area . From 1539, Fallersleben belonged to the newly founded Duchy of Gifhorn for 10 years under the rule of Duke Franz von Braunschweig-Lüneburg , which was dissolved in 1549. After that, his widow Clara von Lauenburg lived in Fallersleben Castle until her death in 1576 . In 1559 there was already a fortification of Fallersleben with ramparts and moats as well as four city gates : west gate, Gröpertor in the east, courtyard gate to the castle side in the south and new gate in the north.
In the Merian description of 1654 it says about Fallersleben:
“Before times, this spot was responsible for the Counts of Woldenberg, who sold it to Duke Otten and Duke Wilhelmen of Braunschweig and Lüneburg in the year of Christ in 1337. [...] That the current Princely House was first built and built there by Duke Franzen of Braunschweig Lüneburg, afterwards by his widowed wife Clara, Duchess of Saxony, Engern and Westphalia, in 1551. "
In the 18th and 19th centuries, the Braunschweig – Calvörde postal route ran through Fallersleben .
