Oost-Souburg is a town in the municipality of Vlissingen in the province of Zeeland, Netherlands.

History
The village was first mentioned in 1162 as Sutburch, and used to mean "southern fortified place", because it was the most southern of three defensive structures to defend against the Vikings. Oost (east) was added later to distinguish from West-Souburg. Oost-Souburg developed around the 9th century walled fortification. In 1840, it was home to 469 people. In 1966, the town became part of the municipality of Vlissingen. == Notable people ==
