Resumo: This article analyzes the profile of visitors and tourists of the tourist information centers of the Route of the Romanesque project, so that one can get to know in particular those who visit these information spaces and the Route of the Romanesque in general. The quantitative data that underlie this study show that, since 2013, inflows in information centers are declining and that the majority of visitors and tourists are local and neighboring municipalities to the project. Foreign tourists have little quantitative expression. It was concluded that the impact of the Route of the Romanesque is still very regional, and more promotional and publicity actions are required to attract new visitors and tourists, seeking to win another projection, above the regional one. A new bet in the information centers is recommended to receive those who visit the monuments of the project and to promote the romanesque and tourist heritage of the region.
