 De Cocksdorp
De Cocksdorp in the north is Texel's youngest village. The village came about in 1835 near the small harbour, which was situated where the Roggesloot flowed into the Eierlandse Gat. The village was initially called Nieuwdorp, but was named after N.J. de Cock after only a few months.
De Cock was an Antwerp shipowner who fled to Rotterdam during the Belgian uprising (1830 - 1839), and founded the "Society of Ownership of Eierland" with others.
