The LHC is a proton-proton Collider with a center of mass energy of 7 TeV which has started taking data at the end of 2009. The range of energy covered by the LHC makes it the ideal machine for searching for signals of supersymmetric theories, through the detection of the production of supersymmetric particles in proton-proton collisions. Both large general-purpose experiments at the LHC, ATLAS and CMS have performed analyses focused on the key supersymmetric signatures. After an introduction on the main motivations for Supersymmetric theories and a brief discussion of the corresponding phenomenology at hadron Colliders, the results of the searches for Supersymmetric particles at the LHC based on ~35 pb-1 of data collected in 2010 will be shown. A brief outlook will also be given of the expected results with the expected ~100-fold increase of integrated luminosity during the 2011-12 run. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
