Polish Historical Society (Polish : Polskie Towarzystwo Historyczne, PTH) is a Polish professional scientific society for historians.
Founded in 1886 in Lwów by Ksawery Liske as a local society, its scientific journal became the Kwartalnik Historyczny , which was first published in 1887. [1] in 1924 it became a Poland-wide organization dedicated to advancing the knowledge and studies in history of Poland. [1] In 1939, PTH had 12 branches: Brest, Grodno, Katowice, Kielce, Kraków, Lublin, Lvov, Łódź, Poznań, Przemyśl, Warsaw, and Vilnius. [1] After World War II, the society was moved to Kraków on January 8, 1947, and to Warsaw on September 28 of that year. [1]
Historians living in exile in the west formed the Polish Historical Society in Great Britain on November 29, 1946, which was transformed into the Polish Historical Society in Exile in 1953. Its first long-term president was Marian Kukiel. [1]
In 1952 PTH had 14 branches: Białystok, Gdańsk, Katowice, Kielce, Kraków, Lublin, Łódź, Olsztyn, Poznań, Przemyśl, Toruń, Szczecin, Warsaw, and Wrocław. [1] The number grew to 36 in 1958. Since 1974 it has been organizing tournaments of historical knowledge and since 1980 has been organizing academic conferences at five-year intervals. It has 46 local chapters, 8 committees, and over 3,000 members. Since 2005, it has had a status of a public benefit organization under Polish law. [2]
The Polish Historical Society publishes several scientific journals such as Małopolskie Studia Historyczne, Rocznik Kaliski, Rocznik Łódzki, Rocznik Lubelski and Biuletyn Polskiego Towarzystwa Historycznego.
Since 1800, the Society has organized General Conventions of Polish Historians. They are held, on average, every 5 years and are aimed at presenting and summarizing the achievements of Polish historical sciences, as well as setting goals for the future. The XXI Congress is scheduled for 2024 in Białystok. [3]
A voivodeship or voivodate is the area administered by a voivode (governor) in several countries of central and eastern Europe. Voivodeships have existed since medieval times and the area of extent of voivodeship resembles that of a duchy in western medieval states, much as the title of voivode was equivalent to that of a duke. Other roughly equivalent titles and areas in medieval Eastern Europe included ban and banate.
The Polish Radio is a national public-service radio broadcasting organization of Poland, founded in 1925. It is owned by the State Treasury of Poland. On 27 December 2023, the Minister of Culture and National Heritage, due to the President's veto on the financing of the company, placed it in liquidation.

The Armed Forces Delegation for Poland was a Polish anti-communist resistance organization formed on May 7, 1945, by the Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Armed Forces, General Władysław Anders, as a continuation of the NIE ("NO") organization subordinate to the Government Delegation for Poland which in turn was an agency of the Polish Government in Exile. Its purpose was to oppose the Soviet occupation of Poland. It was dissolved on August 8, 1945.
In the Second Polish Republic, there was not a national, Second Division, as we know it today, although the creation of the second division was proposed on several occasions. On Sunday, 26 September 1937 in Częstochowa, a conference of regional teams from across the nation took place, to discuss the creation of the league. Officials of several clubs arrived, such as Brygada Częstochowa, Gryf Toruń, Śmigły Wilno, Rewera Stanisławów, Dąb Katowice, Unia Sosnowiec, Strzelec Janowa Dolina, and WKS Grodno. Also, invited were officials of HCP Poznań, Podgorze Kraków, Naprzód Lipiny and Union Touring Łódź, but for unknown reasons they did not show up. The officials talked about creation of a National B-League, but nothing came out of this project. Instead, in the years 1921-1939, several Voivodeships held their own games and those leagues were known as A-Classes. In 1927, the elite Polish Football League was created, which by the late 1930s consisted of 10 teams. The teams that did not make it to the Ekstraklasa, played in the A-Classes.
Football Junior Championships of Poland Under-19 is a competition which started in the summer of 1936.
