Fun Fact! In the 1300s, it officially became a holiday associated with love.
The date of February 14 was formally named "St. Valentine's Day" by Roman Pope Gelasius around the end of the fifth century. However, it wasn't until the Middle Ages that the festival became connected with love and passion, a tradition that sprang from the widespread belief in France and England that birds began their mating season on February 14.
