Institute of Spain

The Institute of Spain (, IdE) is a Spanish learned society, grouping ten royal academies. The institute is part of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, which partially funds these organizations.

The organization is headquartered in the city of Madrid, in a building known as ''Caserón de San Bernardo'' or Auditorium of Universidad Complutense, a former Jesuits-owned building. The Institute shares the space with the Complutense University of Madrid and the State School Council.

The institute is headed by a president who, since 2010, has been elected annually and on a rotating basis among the presidents or directors of the different royal academies. Provided by Wikipedia
