The Union has its origins in the establishment of the first church Baptist in Madrid by William J. Knapp in 1870. [1] In the 1920s, several Baptist churches were also founded by an American mission of the International Mission Board. [2] In 1922, the Baptist Theological Institute (now Faculty of Theology of the Evangelical Baptist Union of Spain) was inaugurated in Barcelona. [3] In 1923, the Union is officially founded.[4] In 1928, the first convention took place.[5] In 2004, the Union had 91 churches.[6] According to a census published by the association in 2023, it claimed 175 churches and 11,438 members.
