- Since its founding, the Leno monastery was called ad Leones, an appellation that according to tradition was derived from a dream of King Desiderius. Legend has it that the then Lombard duke, tired after a strenuous hunt in a marshy area near Leno, fell asleep. A snake, coming out of nowhere, crawled up beside him and went to coil around his head. The valet escorting the duke did not wake him up, fearing that if he did, the duke would become agitated and the beast might bite him; shortly afterward the snake departed. When Desiderius awoke, he told the servant that he had dreamed of a situation similar to what had actually happened to him. In the dream, however, the snake had shown him a particular place; the servant then pointed to the spot where the reptile had taken refuge. The two began digging at that spot and found three golden, or marble lions according to other sources.
From this episode would derive the adjective leonense that would characterize the abbey later erected there by Desiderius, once he became king.
According to Jacopo Malvezzi, the foundation of the monastery would derive, not from the discovery of lion statues, but from a dream, which occurred to Desiderius near Leno during a hunting trip, in which his future coronation as king of the Lombards was foretold. (en)

- I never heard that the church of Leno was subject to the bishop of Brescia or that it had been baptized under his authority. Once, however, I went to the synod of the Church of Brescia with my master Martino [of San Genesio], and on that occasion I heard that it was called "parish of Leno" when the priest Martino read the list in which the parishes of the Church of Brescia were recorded. Upon hearing those words, however, as if suddenly disturbed, vicedominus Giovanni exclaimed, "God help us! Will this foolishness ever end? From the time that lasts now only dogs return there!" (en)
