Doksy, Municipal town in Česká Lípa District, Czech Republic

Located within the Ralsko Uplands at 266 meters above sea level, Doksy encompasses seven distinct communities including Břehyně, Kruh, and Staré Splavy.

Originally established near Bezděz Castle by King Ottokar II in 1264, Doksy received its first documented mention in a deed from 1293.

The Church of Saint Bartholomew and the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, constructed between 1686 and 1689, exhibits architectural elements from the 14th century.

The town connects to major transport routes through the I/38 road linking Mladá Boleslav with Česká Lípa and a railway line from Kolín to Rumburk.

Charles IV established a large pond in 1367 that transformed Doksy into a recreational destination, leading to the creation of an extensive beach in 1928.
