Women’s Day became celebrated in Poland after War Word II when it had been already known in other countries. It was imposed from Soviet Union’s tradition. It was first implemented in 1948 replacing a day of blessed Wincenty Kadlubek in Polish calendar. The Women's Day in Soviet Union is a day free from work for everybody, not just the women. Although initially this feast was enforced by the government, it became accepted by the Polish society and it is still very popular as it used to be in the communist times.
