History:
Lahden Hiihtoseura (Lahti ski club) was founded on March 4, 1922 and in fall of the same year the construction of the first ski jumping hill started at Salpausselkä area, which had been leased to the club by the town council for 50 years. The hill was projected by Robert Persson from Norway and finished in December 1922 - the very first jump was (only) 11 meters long. This 40-meter hill was located on the Intiaanikukkula hill, on the southern side of today's Salpausselkä ski stadium, opposite of the main spectator stands. On February 3-4, 1923, the very first Lahti ski games, the "Salpausselän kisat", were organized - establishing one of the most traditional competitions in Nordic skiing.
The first WSC at Lahti was held in 1926. In the following years the hill had been constantly modified and was enlarged in 1932. For the next World Championships in 1938 the ski jumping hill was completely rebuilt as K62.5 with a might wooden inrun structure and knoll. Also the ski stadium and stands were enlarged, such that ca. 60,000 spectators could cheer for the new World Champion, Norway’s Asbjörn Ruud.
For the next WSC in 1957 the ski stadium was once again modernized, but the hill had not been enlarged. 67,000 spectators were witnesses to Finland’s Juhani Kärkinen becoming new world champion.
A new spectator record of 114,082 visitors was registered during Ski Games of 1964 - before that the hill had been enlarged to K74. Two years later the very first team competition was held at Lahti with the GDR claiming the victory.
In 1970 the complete remodelling of Salpausselkä ski stadium in its current form started. The new K113 large hill with a 55 meter high inrun tower and knoll made from reinforced concrete was completed in 1972. It was built a few hundred meters from the old hill. Both operated in parallel until the old jump was dismantled in 1976.
