Quarterly: 1 and 4 Gules, a castle triple towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable; 2 and 3 Argent, a lion rampant Purpure, armed and langued Gules, crowned Or. Crest: An open royal crown Or.

Escudo cuartelado: 1^o y 4^o de gules, un castillo de oro, aclarado de azur, mazonado de sable; 2^o y 3^o de plata, un león rampante de púrpura, armado y lampasado de gules, coronado de oro. Timbrado de una corona real abierta.

Pre-existing arms interpreted by me as follows: the shield of arms has a rounded (semicircular) base; the quarterly field, the two castles and the two lions are illuminated; the lion and its crown are outlined in the colour of the field; the open royal crown and the castle are outlined in Sable, in the case of the castle because it is masoned; and the whole has a painted plaster finish.

In [Medél, R.; 1846; plate 10, illustration 4] his interpretation of the arms of Castile and León can be seen.

For the expression «a Castle triple towered» in the English blazon, I have followed [Burke, B.; 2009; pages 12, 27, 41, 51, 76, 104, 106, 109, 150, 159, 171, 189, 200, 226, 273, 281, 282, 287, 322 and others], where it is used more often with a hyphen «triple-towered» and less often without a hyphen «triple towered», which is the form I have chosen.

Escudo cuartelado: 1^o y 4^o de gules, un castillo de oro, aclarado de azur, mazonado de sable; 2^o y 3^o de plata, un león rampante de púrpura, armado y lampasado de gules, coronado de oro. Timbrado de una corona real abierta.

Arms of the Kingdom of Castile and León created by me as follows: the shield of arms has a rounded (semicircular) base; the quarters are illuminated in flat tinctures Argent and Gules; the castles, lions and crown are illuminated; the lion and its crown are outlined in the colour of the field; the open royal crown; the royal Castilian castle is masoned, that is, outlined in Sable; the whole has an iridescent finish; and the owner, the shield and its blazon are framed within a border representing the arms of the Kingdom, this frame resulting from the combination of 76 small castles and 2 large ones at the corners with 76 small crowned lions and 2 large lions at the other corners;

In the armorial [Urfé; 15^th century; page VIII of the index and page 140 of the contents], reference is made to and the arms of Castile and its kings are blazoned in French, describing its castle and its purple lion crowned Or and rampant.
