The specifics of the historical land use of the northern portion of the Trenčianská basin and the adjacent slopes in the White Carpathians foothills included viniculture and fish pond cultivation from the mid-16th century. The presence of vineyards and a pond in the territory reflect historical landscape structures which have survived in a fragment of specific archetypes of the cultural landscape. Its historical memory can be reconstructed for example by modeling the historical land use on a vertical cut through tessera. The paper deals with the historicalgeographic aspects of viniculture and fish pond cultivation in the researched territory, or specifically the explanation of the natural, cultural and social driving forces which permanently influenced the landscape picture of the White Carpathians foothills and the basin highlands.
