Info:Continuation of the Tydzień Gór [Week of the Mountains], which had started in 1935, but was held for the first time in Wisła in 1937. This 3rd edition took place under the patronage of Ignacy Mościcki (1867-1946), President of the Republic of Poland, and Marshal Edward Rydz-Śmigły (1886-1941).
Calculation:In principle, the year of the first edition is based, purely arithmetically, on the count of the numbered edition(s), i.e.: (a [= year of the most recent numbered edition] minus b [= number of that edition]) plus 1 = c [= year of the 1st edition], assuming that the event has been held annually from the start, and that there has never been a gap in the continuation.
NB: A first anniversary = by definition the 2nd edition. [NB²: The 55th edition was held in 2018].
