Both literature and economics show a changing approach to historical heritage. It is no longer seen as a resource that generates only high maintenance costs. Analyses of local government units (LGUs) show that historical heritage is a strength rather than a weakness. More and more often, it is considered in economic development strategies as an asset that creates new activities and functions, generates income, and creates jobs. One example of the strategic use of historic heritage is cultural tourism, which is recognized as one of the fastest growing tourism sectors in economy. Improving the quality of historical heritage may in the future result in positive effects directly connected with the heritage itself, and through the multiplier effect, may impact the whole region as well. The objective of this article is to discuss historical heritage in the community of Kamieniec Ząbkowicki, in the voivodship of Lower Silesia, where one of the most beautiful palaces in Poland is located - the home of Princess Marianne of Orange-Nassau. This article will evaluate the role of historical heritage as an element of cultural tourism in the development strategy of the community, as well as analyse expenditure incurred by the LGU and the generated positive effects, e.g. growing tourist traffic.
