Prestige Amateur Tournaments on the Continent

Which were the top amateur tournaments in Europe between the late 1920s and 1967, besides the Italian, German and Monte Carlo championships? I have the idea that the Cannes tournament was important, but I can't find any records, except indirectly and it is confusing because I think many years more than one tournament was held in Cannes. I looked at the French Covered Courts, but the fields there did not look impressive. I looked at Sweden and same problem, ditto outside the Continent. The fields at Cairo, Buenos Aires, Mexico City, etc. were not consistently strong by any any means. If anyone can shed light on this, it would be very appreciated. It is easy to identify the prestige events in the U.S., England and Australia. But I would think that Europe had more than just the three traditional championships above-mentioned.
