Abstract	A 72 cm peat core from a spring mire reveals 3300 years of vegetation history in the Hoher Fläming, a landscape formed by the penultimate glaciation in southeastern Brandenburg. Primeval beech-oak forest dominated from a.d. 550 to 1200, prior to local forest clearance. Existing maps showing the natural and potential natural vegetation as pine and oak need to be revised. Local woodland cutting in the 12th century and grassland use since the 15th century affected the development of the helokrene (spring-fed) mire deposits from alder carr to mesotrophic fen vegetation and then to the present-day Sphagnum fallax-Juncus acutiflorus wet meadows. Vegetation and mire history link together the Hoher Fläming and adjacent landscapes on a northwest-southeast gradient of suboceanic to subcontinental climate. Moreover it represents a geographical and altitudinal transition of lowland and hill vegetation from 30 to 200 m a.s.l. to the montane belts of the palynologically well investigated Harz mountains. However, regarding some trees and herbs, the Hoher Fläming does not belong to the Hercynian region and type of vegetation.
