It is the Welsh counterpart of St. Valentine's Day. The tales of Saint Dwynwen vary, but one of the most well-known is as follows. Although her father had set up a different marriage for her, Dwynwen had fallen in love with a guy by the name of Maelon. Dwynwen, overcome with grief, prayed to God for assistance in forgetting Maelon. So an angel gave her a medicine that transformed Maelon into ice. Then, three wishes were granted to her. She wished for three things. First, God would watch over all real loves. Second, that Maelon would melt. The third wish was that she would never get married. All of these things came to pass. Dwynwen then established a church on the island of Llanddwyn, the remnants of which may still be seen today.
