Saint Valentine’s Day, commonly called Valentine’s Day, began as a holiday
observed on February 14 honoring one or more early Christian martyrs named
Saint Valentine. It was first established by Pope Gelasius in 496 AD, and was later deleted from the General Roman Calendar of saints in 1969 by Pope Paul VI.
