Abstract
Tourism planners believe that cultural tourism can provide good profits with minor environ- ment and social impacts. Nevertheless, cultural tourism planning is not so easy to handle. Using” mate- rial and symbolic culture as an attractive needs participation, respect and study of the history of host society. This article presents a research held at Blumenau City (Santa Catarina, Brazil) where ethnic tourism is proposed, on the grounds of part of the population’s German background. The aims is to es- tablish a link between demolition or abandonment of many historic or “typical” houses with the so called “revival of German culture” a project issued from the city council without community participation or agreement.
