St Dwynwen's Day
ST. DWYNWEN
25th January is St. Dwynwen’s Day, named after a 5th century Welsh heroine who, as a daughter of King Brychan fell hopelessly in love with Prince Maelon, a man she could not marry.
The legend says that she was freed from her desires but that Maelon was turned into a statue of ice.
Dwynwen prayed and she was granted 3 wishes. The first that Maelon be unfrozen. The second that she would never marry. The third that all true lovers would find happiness.
In gratitude, Dwynwen went on to start a convent at Llanddwyn on the west coast of Anglesey, where a Well named after her, became a place of pilgrimage.
Make your feelings known on St. Dwynwen’s Day and take your chance to say “Dwi’n dy garu di” (I love you).
Gift box with a storycard explaining tradition and meaning is included.
