Mamrelund og Kastelvej er to vejnavne, der overlevede hvad man sagde i folkemunde, da landsbyernes veje i 1960'erne fik gadenavne og husnumre. Mamrelund - kendt fra Bibelen - er opkaldt efter Abraham Andersen, som boede her i 1800-tallet. For Abraham boede som bekendt i Mamrelund.

Infotavlen i den nordlige ende af Viby fortæller yderligere om byens vejnavne og fortidsminder i området. På selve Mamrelund har beboerne med god landlig humor sat et skilt der fortæller, at du nu er i Mamrelund kommune. En sådan findes ikke. Men sjovt er det.

English: Mamrelund and Kastelvej are two road names that survived what was said in the vernacular, when the villages' roads were given street names and house numbers in the 1960s. Mamrelund - known from the Bible - is named after Abraham Andersen, who lived here in the 19th century. Because Abraham lived in Mamrelund, as is well known.

The information board at the northern end of Viby tells more about the city's road names and historical monuments in the area. In Mamrelund itself, the residents with good rural humor have put up a sign saying that you are now in Mamrelund municipality. Such does not exist. But it's fun.
Bible verse: Første Moses bog - Kapitel 18 - vers 1 Engang viste Herren sig ved Mamres Ege for Abraham, mens han sad i teltåbningen på den varmeste tid af dagen.
