Loosduinen (Dutch pronunciation: [loːzˈdœynə(n)]) is a former village in the Netherlands that was a municipality unto itself until 1923, when it was annexed by The Hague and subsequently became a district of the city.
Within the district there is also a neighbourhood (Dutch:wijk) called 'Loosduinen'.
It has its own dialect, the Loosduinen dialect, which is very similar to The Hague dialect.
