Alfons XII (28.11.1857-25.12.1885) był synem Izabeli II, która abdykowała na jego rzecz w 1868 roku. Po obaleniu Amédée de Savoie, króla w latach 1871-1873, 11 lutego 1873 r. proklamowano Republikę, ale 29 grudnia 1874 r. Alfons XII został przywrócony na tron hiszpański. Ożenił się z Marią Mercedes de Bourbon (1860-1878), a następnie w 1879 r. z Marią Krystyną Austriacką (1858-1929), która urodziła mu pośmiertnie syna, przyszłego Alfonsa XIII.
