The region of Bezděz / Doksy (North Bohemia, Czech Republic) differs from surrounding cultural landscape by its peculiar biodiversity (including e.g. endemism) which indicates an anomalous natural and cultural history on Holocene level. The paper assesses this area as a relict island of hemiboreal lowland tajga. The sandstone pseudokarst, fens, wildfire cyclic succession in coniferous forests, and soil conditions unsuitable for agriculture are the main influences stabilizing this landscape both against long–term natural changes and human impact. Therefore, standard colonisation strategies (towns and agricultural villages) mostly failed here whereas alternative and „mild“ strategies such as hunting, forestry and fish farming were more successfull.
