About Valentine's Day in 2026
February 14 is traditionally linked to one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine; the Catholic Church recognizes at least two saints by that name with feast days on this date, and the historical record on either is thin.
The Catholic Church removed St. Valentine's feast day from its universal liturgical calendar in 1969 as part of a broader revision, judging the historical details behind the figure too uncertain, though local observance continued.
Handwritten paper valentines were the norm well into the 19th century before printed, then mass-manufactured, cards took over the market almost entirely.
