Tucked between the Bělá River and the wooded hills of the Ralsko Uplands, Bělá pod Bezdězem is a town whose character is shaped by its setting beneath twin-peaked Bezděz. Founded in 1337 by Hynek Berka of Dubá, it developed as a small historic centre in northern Bohemia. Its Renaissance château recalls later aristocratic patronage, while nearby Bezděz Castle, a major Gothic ruin overlooking the surrounding countryside, remains the area’s defining landmark. Forests and low hills give this part of the Central Bohemian Region a distinctly inland feel.
