Sport Infrastructure in Interwar Warsaw
The monograph attempts to reconstruct the history of sport infrastructure in Warsaw between the First and the Second World War. Sport was a rapidly developing sphere of social life in interwar Poland. Sport clubs, divisions and organizations sprang up, associating increasing numbers of people eager to spend their leisure time seeking fulfilment in physical competition. This, in turn, generated a need for the development of sport infrastructure: sports fields, running tracks, tennis courts, ice rinks, cycling tracks, boating harbours. In 1918–1939, hundreds of new sport facilities were erected – from impressive complexes of the Central Institute for Physical Education or the Służewiec Racecourse all the way to local sports fields, school swimming pools and workplace shooting ranges.
Keywords: sport, infrastructure, Warsaw, urban planning, Second Polish Republic.
