Tourism has been an economic sector of great importance for the Croatian economy for many years, which is also confirmed by the fact that the direct contribution of tourism to the Croatian national economy is around 11%, with 23% of the working population employed in tourism. As for architectural heritage, there are nearly 5,000 registered tangible cultural heritages in the National Register of Cultural Property. However, according to the data available from the Institute of Tourism on the motives of tourists visiting Croatia, culture and arts are ranked only sixth. To change this, it is necessary to revitalize the cultural heritage by making it functional, and as such accessible and attractive to tourists, financially independent, and most important, preserved. The aim of this graduate thesis is to present the restoration of the architectural heritage for the purpose of tourism. To this objective, the definitions of the terms of architectural heritage and tourism were thoroughly analyzed, and historical development of cultural tourism and the restoration of architectural heritage for tourism purposes has been introduced. Furthermore, through the analysis of selected examples, the restoration for tourism purposes of historical units, historical public, industrial and residential architecture was presented. Cultural heritage and revitalization for the purposes of tourism is shown on the example of the village of Trebišća.
