The organogenic sediment from a mire near the Baltic shore was studied by means of different methods, including pollen analyses, plant macrofossils, identification of subfossil beetles and radiocarbon datings. On the basis of local pollen and macrofossil assemblage zones the vegetational history of the Gardno-Leba Plain is described since the Preboreal. The changes of water-level in the mire and fluctuations in the level of the Baltic are discussed.
