To study this problem, the authors conductedqualitative and quantitative research using the questionnaire method. Theywere carried out in the area of two selected small historic towns located insouthern Poland in the Małopolska region: Muszyna and Piwniczna-Zdrój. Theiraim was to determine the level of awareness of the cultural heritage values ofboth towns among their inhabitants. The results of the research are expected toidentify areas of real educational needs in terms of the knowledge and a senseof value of local monuments. The authors believe that social participation andinvolvement of local communities is essential in the process of protectingand caring for monuments of indigenous cultural heritage.
