Summary/Abstract: Finding effective arguments for protection of monuments, both rationales for spending public means and stimulating activities of private actors, requires taking a broader than conventional approach to the socio-economic benefits created at different spatial scales thanks to conservation, renewal and contemporary usage of heritage objects and sites. Taking into account the diversity of potential impacts of cultural heritage on contemporary development processes, the article focuses on a selected, important aspect of heritage impact, i.e., multiplier effects regarded as basic mechanisms in local and regional development. Different types of multiplier effects and factors determining their size are presented.
