Understanding Valentine's Day
History of Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day originated from ancient Roman festivals and Christian martyrdom. The celebration has evolved from religious observance to a worldwide celebration of love and affection, marked by exchanging gifts, cards, and romantic gestures.
Why February 14th?
February 14th was chosen to honor Saint Valentine, a Christian priest who performed secret weddings for soldiers when Emperor Claudius II had banned marriage for young men. The date became associated with romantic love in the High Middle Ages.
