Happy Valentine's Day 2024: History

The origin of Valentine's Day can be traced back to the story of St. Valentine who is remembered for his selfless acts of help for couples. It is said that St. Valentine was sentenced to imprisonment and beheaded by Emperor Claudius II for solemnizing the marriage of couples secretly. On the day of his execution, St. Valentine sent a note to Julia, the blind daughter of the jailer, that mentioned 'Your Valentine'. Since then, Valentine's Day is celebrated every year on February 14.

Valentine's Day is also associated with Lupercalia—an ancient Roman festival for fertility— and Cupid, the Roman God of love and desire.
