In the context of the current state of the discussion on religious tourism in Poland, the author justifies the need for separate research focusing on tourism related activities oriented towards cognitive experiences and connected with places and events linked with beliefs, yet unrelated to one’s religious attitudes and not being part of one’s practice of faith. Numerous examples of tourist activities and available travelling options provide material for an analysis of typical destinations and for characteristics of products on offer for this kind of cultural tourism. Finally, the article points to the potential areas for research and problems requiring complex solutions for this segment of cultural tourism.
