Oosterend is a village in the Dutch province of North Holland.

It is a part of the municipality of Texel, and lies about 17 km northeast of Den Helder.

Although it's situated further from the sea than Oudeschild it's the hometown of most fishermen on Texel.

Oosterend is sometimes called Jerusalem-of-the-north, this is caused due to five different religions in the village, Catholicism, Baptism, Dutch Reformed, Protestantism, Reformed-Gemeente.

This is also the underlying cause of the fact that the relatively small community used to have three primary schools.
