Why is Valentine’s Day celebrated?
Valentine’s Day has its origins in ancient Rome, where, according to legend, a priest named Valentine defied the orders of Emperor Claudius II the Gothic and performed marriages in secret for young lovers. For this he was executed on 14 February 269 AD. The Catholic Church canonised him and since then his day has been commemorated as a celebration of love and friendship.
Over the centuries, the holiday became popular in different countries, becoming a special occasion to express affection through letters, gifts and shared moments. Today, Valentine’s Day is one of the most anticipated dates for couples, who seek unique experiences to strengthen their bonds and create special memories.
