“…Heritage, derived from the Latin term hereditas, legally refers to inheritance or succession, encompassing the rights and liabilities passed on to heirs and the estate of a deceased person regarded as a juridical entity (Josefsson & Aronsson, 2016). Kronenberg (2007) asserts that heritage should be seen as inherited wealth, a legacy from preceding generations, including cultural, scientific, and artistic assets. Bowes (1989: 36) expands the concept of heritage to encompass not only major historic sites but the entire regional landscape, incorporating geographic elements, structures, villages, people, traditions, and economic activities.…”

This article explores the relationship between amber and heritage tourism, utilizing Poland as an illustrative context. Amber, a form of fossilized resin, holds significant importance across a multitude of fields, such as science, culture, and economy, having been used as a material by artists, craftsmen, and jewelers for centuries. Today, amber draws visitors to locations where it is found and to institutions that display amber collections, such as museums and galleries. Furthermore, it is an essential component of various events, including exhibitions,fairs, and amber fishing competitions. Amber also forms the foundation of many tourist routes, such as the renowned Amber Route. Owing to its deep ties with cultural heritage, amber is considered a central attraction within amber-based heritage tourism. This paper examines the current contribution of amber to the development of heritage tourism. The authors conducted a literature analysis, online source queries, evaluations ofinstitutions (e.g., museums), and personal observations to address the topic. The article is divided into eight sections, each highlighting different aspects of the investigated subject, ultimately suggesting an adaptation of Timothy and Boyd’s (2003) model to illustrate the development of amber-based heritage tourism.
