Abstract

Cultural tourism presents the movement of people caused by the cultural attractions outside their usual place of residence, with the intention to collect new information and experience in order to satisfy their cultural needs. As such, the cultural tourism is one of the selective types of tourism, and is directed to meeting the specific needs related to tourist culture. Sremska Mitrovica was built on the former site of Sirmium, one of the four capitals of the Roman Empire. This paper will be based on tourist movements of local people which are focused on the cultural sites and objects and historical heritage of their hometown. We assume that a small percentage of the local population visited sites and objects of cultural and historical heritage and cultural institutions in Sremska Mitrovica. The aim of the paper is to encourage local residents to visit museum, gallery, theater, more frequently, as well as other sites and objects of cultural and historical heritage in Sremska Mitrovica. The survey was conducted through an electronic survey. The research methodology is based on the descriptive and statistical processing and data analysis using SPSS 20 software.
