Solne dziedzictwo regionu w działalności Klubu Przyjaciół Wieliczki
The salt heritage of the region in the activities of the Klub Przyjaciół Wieliczki (Wieliczka Friends Club)

Summary/Abstract: For centuries, the inhabitants of a small city like Wieliczka have built a culture whose sources should be sought in the workplace – the salt mine. However, today’s Wieliczka is much more diverse than in the past. Primarily, it is a popular tourist destination, attracting millions of tourists every year. In my article, I will try to answer the question of whether it is possible to capture elements of mining heritage in a touristic place like Wieliczka? In paper, I will present examples of how heritage is shaped by local enthusiasts of the salt mining in Wieliczka and in the vicinity. Attention will be focused on selected activities of one of the local associations – the Wieliczka Friends Club.
