Midsland (West Frisian: Midslân) is the second-largest village on the Dutch island of Terschelling in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 1,018 in January 2017.[1]
A statue was placed near the village in 1982 commemorating Het Stryper Wyfke, an old crone who deceived English troops and saved the island's civilian population during Holmes's Bonfire in 1666.
