The history of mining methods to rescue the most valuable undergrounds goes back tens of years. These experiments implemented by a team of specialists from the AGH University of Science and Technology resulted in saving many historic mines, drifts, cellars, caves. They now serve as interesting archaeological sites, underground tourist routes, museums, spas. The adverse effects of time, natural hazards and long – term exploitation of underground workings require to take technical actions in order to re – establish the original technical and functional values of the objects. The presented scope of the revitalization activities allowed to save for future generations many underground monuments that are the testimony of cultural, industrial and civilization heritage.

The popular idea of establishing thematic tourist routes as examples of qualified tourism allows us, according to the attached plan, to make the cultural heritage available to the wider public. This concept was the basis for working out the Cracow Industrial Heritage Route. It was the Cracow Museum of Municipal Engineering that had put forward the proposal to establish a tourist route. The project was carried out together with the Department of Promotion and Tourism of the Office of the Mayor of the City of Cracow and in cooperation with the Cracow Society for the Protection of Historical Monuments of Technique as well as with the 1st District of the City of Cracow. The route was officially opened on April 6, 2006. 16 monuments, each remaining in a relationship with the postindustrial heritage, the transport system and the flood and fire prevention systems were placed along the route. Separate objects – elements of the Cracow Industrial Heritage Route - have been described in the article. The analysis of historical and technical value of the presented objects made it possible to assess the suggested project of the route as well as the chances of its extension. The basic tourist qualities of each of these items have been also considered in the assessment as they understandably contribute to the attractiveness of the whole tourist project, namely of the Cracow Industrial Heritage Route. The experience acquired during the organization of the postindustrial tourist route in Cracow can facilitate realization of similar undertakings in regions where the industrial and technical heritage is decisive for the tourist attractiveness of a given town, settlement or dwelling complex.
