Heusden also known as Asten-Heusden (or Heuze among locals) is a small village in North Brabant in the Netherlands. It is in the so-called Peel region.
It was first mentioned in 1794 as Heusden. The etymology is unclear.{{cite web|url=https://etymologiebank.nl/trefwoord/heusden |title=Heusden - (geografische naam) |website=Etymologiebank |access-date=15 April 2022 |language=nl}}
Heusden has a small village square with a few bars, a church, a grocery store, and a youth center. The village is only a couple kilometres from Asten which is much larger and the centre of activity for most residents of Heusden. Heusden also has the romantic remains of an old castle that dates from the fifteenth century. Attached to the ruins, a seventeenth-century v-shape farmstead is still in place.
