Founded in 1738 under Philip V, the Real Academia de la Historia is one of Spain’s royal academies and is dedicated to the study of Spanish history in its many dimensions, from politics and religion to science, literature, and the arts. Its headquarters are in Madrid.
Over time, the academy has become an important center for historical research and reference. It is known for projects such as the Diccionario Biográfico and the Historia Hispánica portal, which brings together biographies, events, and places for a broad public as well as specialists.
The institution also maintains a major library and digital collections that support the study of Spain and Hispanic America. Rather than being an individual author, it is a long-standing scholarly body whose publications reflect collaborative research and editorial work.
