Sancha of León (? – 27 November 1067) was a Queen of León. ==Family== Sancha was a daughter of Alfonso V of León by his first wife, Elvira Menéndez.〔Fernández del Pozo, José María (1999). ''Alfonso V (999) Vermudo III (1029-1037). Burgos''. ISBN 84-89915-07-5.〕 She became a secular abbess of the Monastery of San Pelayo. In 1029, a political marriage was arranged between her and count García Sánchez of Castile.〔Bernard F. Reilly, 26.〕 However, having traveled to León for the marriage, García was assassinated by a group of disgruntled vassals. In 1032, Sancha was married to García’s nephew and successor, Ferdinand I of León and Castile. At the Battle of Tamarón in 1037 Ferdinand killed Sancha’s brother〔Justo Pérez de Urbel and Ricardo Del Arco y Garay, ''Historia de España'', vol. 6, ''España cristiana, comienzo de la reconquista'' (711-I038), 2d ed.〕 Bermudo III of León,〔Reilly, Bernard F. 1982. (''The Kingdom of León-Castilla under Queen Urraca, 1109–1126'', 3. ) Princeton: Princeton University Press.〕 making Sancha the heir and allowing Ferdinand to have himself crowned King of León, Sancha thereby became Queen. Following Ferdinand’s 1065 death and the division of her husband’s kingdom, she is said to have played the futile role of peacemaker among her sons. She was a devout Catholic, who, with her husband, commissioned the crucifix that bears their name〔Gómez-Moreno, María Elena (1947). ''Mil Joyas del Arte Español''. Barcelona: Instituto Gallach.〕 as a gift for the Basilica of San Isidoro.〔Sureda, Joan (1988). ''Historia Universal del Arte: Románico/Gótico''.
