Lehel's horn is the horn of Lél (according to another spelling, Lehel), a descendant of Grand Duke Árpád, one of the leaders of the adventurous Hungarian armies. According to one legend, leader Lehel was taken prisoner in the battle on the Lech field, and after being brought before "Emperor Konrad", he hit him on the forehead with his horn so that he died instantly. An ivory horn is preserved in the Jász Museum in Jászberény, which tradition considers to be Lehel's horn.
