History of St. Valentine's Day
There are varying opinions as to the origin of Valentine’s Day. Some experts state that it originated from St.Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. He died on the February 14, 269 A.D., the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries. In 496 A.D. Pope Gelasius set aside February 14 to honour St.Valentine.
Gradually, February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St.Valentine
became the patron of lovers. The date was
marked by sending poems and simple gifts.
