The first instance of a figure of the lion as symbol of the Kingdom of León is found in minted coins of Alfonso VII, called the Emperor (1126-1157). Until then, the cross had a preponderant position on documents and coins of Leonese monarchs since that reign the cross was gradually displaced by the lion. The Spanish historian and heraldist Martín de Riquer explained that the lion was already used as heraldic emblem in 1148. At the end of the reign of Alfonso VII, the figure of this animal began to appear on royal documents as personal device of the monarch and became pervasive during reigns of Ferdinand II (1157-1188) and Alfonso IX (1188-1230).

rdfs:comment	La efigie del león como símbolo del reino de León apareció por primera vez en tiempos de Alfonso VII, el Emperador (1126-1157). Desde entonces, y a lo largo de la historia, dicho símbolo ha sido utilizado para representar no solo al antiguo reino sino también a la ciudad de León y a la provincia de León. (es) Лео́нський ле́в (ісп. león de León) — герб Леонського королівства та його королів. У срібному щиті пурпурний лев, що здіймається на задні лапи. Інколи зображується коронованим, з червоним або золотим озброєнням, часто — червоним. Використовується в з ХІІ століття. За середньовічною легендою вважався гербом готського Астурійського королівства, який успадкували леонські королі. Після унії Леону з Кастилією в 1230 році, став складовою герба Кастильської Корони (Кастильсько-Леонського королівства), а згодом — Іспанського королівства. Присутній на гербах сучасної Іспанії, іспанської провінції Леон, міста Леон, ряду іспанських міст та шляхетних родин тощо. Різновид промовистого герба. Також — астурі́йський ле́в.

Fino a quel momento, il simbolo preponderante utilizzato dai re leonesi nei loro documenti e nelle loro monete era la croce, ma a partire da quel momento questo diventerà sempre più spesso sostituito dal leone. Alla fine del regno di Alfonso VII, questo animale comincerà anche ad apparire nei documenti regi come segno personale del monarca e verrà mantenuto durante i regni di Ferdinando II di León (1157-1188) e Alfonso IX (1188-1230).
