Den Burg, Administrative center on Texel Island, Netherlands.
Den Burg features a medieval layout with narrow streets, traditional Dutch houses, and a central marketplace where weekly markets take place.
The settlement originated between 918 and 948 under the name Osterburghem, built as a defensive structure against Viking invasions in North Holland.
The Dutch Reformed church exhibits architectural elements from the 11th century and contains a mid-15th-century tower that received modifications after 1537.
The town provides various accommodation options, restaurants, shops, and transportation connections to explore different parts of Texel Island.
A monument dedicated to the Esperanto language stands at the intersection of Kogerstraat and De Zes, installed in 1935.
