It was founded in 1880 and since 1980 has been an extra-provincial church under the metropolitan authority of the Archbishop of Canterbury. In 2016, a quantitative study of Anglicanism published in the Journal of Anglican Studies, by Cambridge University Press, reported that the church claims 5,000 total members. In 2017, Growth and Decline in the Anglican Communion: 1980 to the Present, published by Routledge, collected research reporting there were 11,800 Episcopalians in Spain. Its cathedral is the Anglican Cathedral of the Redeemer in Madrid.
