A snap hinge (1) with damped closure, comprising a first articulated quadrilateral (2) and a second articulated quadrilateral (3) which share a first lever (4) and a second lever (5) and are provided respectively with a plate (6) for coupling to a first element (101) and with a plate (7) for fixing to a second element (102). The hinge (1) is movable alternately between an open configuration and a closed configuration, in which the plates (6, 7) have different arrangements with respect to each other. At least one damping element (8) is interposed at least between the first quadrilateral (2) and the coupling plate (6) or between the second quadrilateral (3) and the fixing plate (7) for damped transition from the open configuration to the closed configuration or vice versa.
