Description
Boundary zones are areas of mutual penetration of social, economic and cultural elements. They are conveyor belts of some kind, carriers of information, thoughts, actions, also in the context of broadly understood cultural heritage (including faith and religion). What is important - such regions are the clear nodal points (or even zones), focusing and targeting (or blocking) the transfer of many ideological, religious and cultural elements, often different from each other.
The purpose of this article is to show the diversity of religious heritage in the area of influence of several cultures, faiths and religions, and also an attempt to interpret it in terms of the development of religious tourism in Europe. Based on the studies of valuation of the cultural landscape and directions of influence of cross-border ties, the categorisation of regions in terms of their potential and cultural and touristic attractiveness has also been attempted.
