Mengeš
Mengeš (pronounced [ˈmeːŋɡəʃ]; German: Mannsburg) is a settlement in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia. It is the seat of the Municipality of Mengeš. It is located approximately fifteen kilometers from the Slovenian capital of Ljubljana. It includes the hamlets of Zavrti, Veliki Mengeš (German: Großmannsburg), Mali Mengeš (German: Kleinmannsburg), and Pristava.
Name
Mengeš was first attested in written sources in 1154–56 as Meingosburg (and as Mengospurch in 1214–20, Mengozesburc in 1226, and Meingospurch in 1243). The Slovene name is a clipped form of Middle High German Meingos(purch), which is a compound of Meingoz (a personal name) + purch 'castle', thus meaning 'castle belonging to Meingoz'. In the past the German name was Mannsburg.
