There is a variety of explanations related to the holiday's origins. Some say it's the song "Good King Wenceslas". According to the song, the 10th century Duke looked out on his land on St. Stephen's Day on December 26th and saw a poor peasant. He ordered food, wine and fuel to be taken to the peasant and called for all the Christians men to bless the poor in the same way.
