Church of De Koog

In the heart of the bustling seaside village of De Koog on Texel stands the beautiful Reformed Koger Church, a historic national monument from 1719. This charming little church forms a wonderful contrast to the lively atmosphere of Dorpsstraat, where shops, cafés, and terraces dominate the street scene.

What makes the Reformed Church of De Koog special?

• Historic Monument: This characteristic little church, located on a charming square in Dorpsstraat, along with the small farmhouse next to it, is one of the few remaining buildings from the old De Koog and has a rich history.
• Serene and Intimate: From the outside, a simple and charming building, but once inside, it radiates a special calm. The cosy atmosphere accommodates around 70 people.
• The Schuilhut: Behind the church is ‘The Schuilhut’, a space where visitors gather after the service for a cup of coffee. In the past, this space also served as a village hall and housed a small library.
