Unveiling the Interplay Between Religiosity, Faith-Based Tourism, and Social Attitudes
Contemporary religiosity is undergoing profound transformation, shaped by postsecular and postmodern dynamics. Amid global declines in institutional affiliation, religious and spiritual tourism has emerged as a salient expression of evolving faith. Poland exemplifies this paradox: witnessing one of the world's steepest declines in youth religiosity, even as Catholicism retains symbolic centrality. Drawing on survey data from 510 Polish young adul…
The interdependencies of religious tourists’ attributes and tourist satisfaction in the light of contemporary socio-cultural changes
The social-cultural changes in the 20th and 21st centuries and changes in religiousness have significantly caused the development of pilgrimage centres and ways of travel. The attributes of religious tourists are becoming increasingly complex and diverse, which may also influence the development of other travel forms and economic benefits, and also create challenges for the management of pilgrimage centres. However, interdependencies of motivatio…
Symbolic Religious Landscape
Combining religious and national symbolism is not a new phenomenon. There are known examples of countries where there were or still are connections between nationality and religion. Pilgrimage centres are examples of symbolic religious landscapes based on the presence of the sacred. Such anthropogenic landscapes are a visible result of culture formed under the influence of religion, a special spiritual and often national heritage expressed throug…

Religious Tourism's Impact on City Space
Pilgrimage centers are important elements of the spatial structure of cities and simultaneously factors influencing their transformations. The pilgrimage function of sanctuaries can lead to development of service zones around them focused mainly on serving visitors, i.e., pilgrims and tourists. They often perform functions complementary to sanctuaries. Here we present the results of studies of sanctuary service zones conducted at twenty six popul…
Inscriptions on roadside memorials in Poland
This paper focuses exclusively on inscriptions on roadside memorials. We conducted a review of studies of roadside memorial inscriptions and a field study of 29 inscriptions found on 156 roadside memorials in Poland to understand the similarities and differences between these inscriptions and those in other countries. The uniqueness of Polish inscriptions is their religious meaning. They reflect the inscription authors' and/or the deceased's rela…
Visitors’ motivations and behaviours at pilgrimage centres
Religious tourism is one of the fastest growing and changing sectors of the world tourism market because of, among other things, social-cultural changes in the 20th and 21st centuries (i.e. the development of transport and mass tourism, globalization, secularization, and commercialization). Pilgrimage centres are important destinations also for general heritage tourism. Despite their global importance and growing popularity, there is still a lack…
The changing roman catholic pilgrimage centres in Europe in the context of contemporary socio-cultural changes
The socio-cultural changes in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, i.e. the development of mass tourism and transport, the secularization, the commercialization and globalization of societies and life as well as the blurring of the boundaries between tourism-pilgrimages in many aspects have influenced on pilgrimage centres. Previously, sanctuaries were only sacred buildings visited mainly by people with religious motivations (pilgrims). Nowa…
Visitors’ diversified motivations and behavior – the case of the pilgrimage center in Krakow (Poland)
The article presents the visitors’ motivations and behavior at the pilgrimage center in Krakow (Poland). Here, the relation between these elements, i.e. whether their motivations have a correlation with what buildings they visit, is emphasized for the first time. The most important motivations for visits were religious and tourist ones, often rated equally high by the same respondents. They visited religious, cultural and tourist buildings and fa…
