About this experience

The Churches in De Koog are a set of historic Protestant and Catholic places of worship located in the village centre of De Koog on the island of Texel. These churches, including the Dorpskerk and the Sint-Catharina Church, offer visitors a look at local religious architecture and community life. Services and open-door hours provide a quiet space for reflection and cultural appreciation.

What to expect

Visit the Dorpskerk, a 15th-century Protestant church with a wooden barrel vault and a 17th-century pulpit.
See the Catholic Sint-Catharina Church, built in 1923, with its distinctive red brick facade and modern stained-glass windows.
Attend a Sunday service or an organ recital, often held in the summer months, to hear the historic organs.
Walk through the adjacent churchyards, where gravestones date back to the 1600s and reflect Texel's maritime history.
Suitable for history enthusiasts and travellers seeking a quiet stop, with visits typically lasting 30-45 minutes.
Both churches are within a 5-minute walk of each other and close to the main shopping street of De Koog.
