Climb the tower of the 'De Burght' church building in Den Burg. A steep climb up narrow stairs, past the old clockwork, on the way to a view that is more than worth the effort. High from the church tower, Den Burg unfolds like a miniature in a vast landscape surrounded by the sea. Exhibition From the very first tufa stone, in ten big steps through the church history of Texel. An exhibition “from the archives of De Burght”, featuring special collection pieces and magnificent stories. About how a war formed the basis of this building, how wine and beer filled the church coffers, and why an uprising nearly proved fatal to the church. In the 'De Burght' church building, you can also view the exhibition on religious heritage on Texel and take an audio tour through the church hall. Opening hours: from mid-April to the end of October on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, weather permitting.
