Date and meaning of Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s day is celebrated on February 14th in many countries all over the world. It’s the celebration of love. Not only the romantic love, but also the love for friends and family.

The origin of Valentine’s Day

This celebration started more than two thousand years ago, on February 15th, as a winter festival in Britain. On that day, people asked their gods to give them a good harvest and strong animals.

The story

When the Romans came to Britain, they brought the story of Saint Valentine. They told that there was a Christian man called Valentine who lived in Rome. At that time, the emperor of Rome was Claudius the Second, who wasn’t a Christian. He didn’t want his soldiers to be married, because he believed that they wouldn’t concentrate on the battles. So, he forbid all his soldiers to marry.

Valentine worked for the church and one day helped a soldier who wanted to marry. Claudius, the emperor, said he had to die and sent him to prison. He died on February 14th.

The story of Saint Valentine became so popular in Britain that they changed the date of the winter festival from February 15th to 14th and its name became Saint Valentine’s Day.

In the early nineteenth century people started to give Valentine cards to the ones they loved and also presents as flowers or candy.

Valentine’s Day today

Nowadays, restaurants, cafeterias and shops get ready for Valentine’s Day by using theme related decorations as hearts, flowers or birds. It’s a good way to improve sales after Christmas. People still exchange gifts and cards with romantic messages and it’s a popular wedding date.
