The Liturgical Year, with its structure of seasons and feast days, evolved over centuries starting in the early Christian church.

The Chronography of 354 AD contains early evidence of the celebration on December 25 of a Christian liturgical feast of the birth of Jesus. This grew out of earlier holidays, like the Roman solstice. It was not the most important Christian holiday until the 18th and 19th centuries.

Since the liturgical year always begins on the first Sunday of Advent, the length of the liturgical year is always a multiple of a whole week. Most liturgical years are 52 weeks (364 days) long. However, in any year in which Christmas falls on a Monday, as well as any leap year in which Christmas falls on a Tuesday, the liturgical year that ends in early December of one of those years is 53 weeks (371 days) long.
