Francisco Morazán Day, also known as Soldier's Day, is a public holiday observed in Honduras every October 3. This date marks the birth anniversary of Francisco Morazán, who was born on October 3, 1792, in Tegucigalpa, the capital of present-day Honduras. Morazán played a significant role in the military and political landscape of Central America, serving as the second President of the Central American Federation and President of Honduras from 1827 until 1840. The holiday celebrates his contributions to the country's independence from the Mexican Empire in 1821 and the adoption of the Constitution of Honduras in 1825. On this day, all governmental offices and private businesses are closed, making it one of the most important holidays in Honduras, alongside Independence Day.
