"When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew." -William Shakespeare

Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.Enjoy romantic moments on Valentine’s Day in our Romantik Hotel Schwarzer Adler.
