	This article is dedicated to the Antoni Dydyński Foundation in Godowa, one of the oldest and most prosperous scholarship foundations of the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. The Foundation’s historical outline is presented by comparing the original idea expressed by the founder in the Foundation Act (from February 2, 1808) with the actual state after the foundation was established more than fifty years after its founder’s death. The history of scholarships (up to a dozen each year), awarded without interruption by the foundation until 1939, is retraced on the basis of available sources. Finally, the foundation’s scholars themselves are mentioned, as many of them, after receiving education in various centers from Cracow to Lviv, became prominent representatives of culture and science in Poland.
