Climbing the church tower

Climb the tower of church building 'De Burght' in Den Burg. A steep climb over narrow steps, past the old clockwork, on the way to a view that is more than worth it. High from the church tower, Den Burg unfolds like a model in a vast landscape surrounded by the sea. In the church building 'De Burght', you can also view the exhibition on religious heritage on Texel and take an audio tour of the church hall. Opening hours: from mid-April to the end of October on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10am-4pm, weather permitting only.
