Texel is a municipality and an island in the Netherlands, in the province of North Holland. It is the biggest and most populated of the Frisian Islands in the Wadden Sea and also the westernmost of this archipelago, which extends to Denmark. The next island in the archipelago, to the north of Texel, is Vlieland.
Although spelled with an X the name is pronounced Tessel, this is because historically it was spelled with a ligature for ss which strongly resembled x. As the ligature disappeared from use the name came to be spelled with an x, although the pronunciation remained the same.
