History of Hug A Plumber Day

The origin of National Hug A Plumber Day remains unknown. Although the word „plumber” comes from it has a very long and interesting history. Its origins go back to the history of the Roman Empire. In Rome, lead was commonly used to make water pipes or roofing, and anyone who worked with lead was called as plumber in medieval times. In earlier years, people working with lead were called plumbarius and only later was this name shortened to plumber. As the infrastructure improved, the plumber's responsibilities also increased.

However, people working in this profession should be appreciated for their skills. It is in their hands to protect the health and well-being of each country. That is why every year on April 25th, National Hug A Plumber Day is celebrated, which is a good opportunity to take a second to acknowledge the hard work of plumbers around the world.
