This paper aims to assess the impact of cultural heritage on Greek economic development. An input-output model approach is used to estimate a set of multipliers that measure the direct, indirect and induced (broader) macroeconomic impact of income, output, value added and employment of cultural heritage on economic growth. The study provides a policy analysis framework for targeted structural economic interventions that can be implemented to improve the operational efficiency of the cultural sector in Greece.
