Not anymore. From 1896 to 1920, there were no Winter Games -- only Summer Games which were held in 1896, 1900, 1904, 1906, 1908, 1912, 1916, and 1920. In 1924, the first modern Winter Games were held in Chamonix, France. The Summer and Winter Olympics continued to occur every 4 years with the Summer Games and Winter Games happening in the same year but in different cities. 1992 was the last year that this occurred. After 1992, the Winter Olympics occurred next in 1994 and the Summer Olympics in 1996. Ever since, they have alternated every 2 years.
There were none that year.
