The Pontifical University of Salamanca (in Spanish: Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca) is a private Roman Catholic university based in Salamanca, Spain.
History
The liberal Spanish governments of the 19th century caused theology and canon law studies to be excluded from the University of Salamanca. Pope Pius XII created, in 1940 after the victory in the Civil War, a new university to restore these two faculties, in the same city, and conferred the category of Pontifical University. [1]
The Decree of Erection was signed on September 25, 1940, at the express request of the Spanish episcopate, thus fulfilling the personal concern of Cardinal Plá y Deniel to restore in Salamanca the Ecclesiastical Sciences, which had been gradually displaced and definitively suppressed from the Spanish universities in 1852.
In the 1940s there were several attempts to unify the two Salamancan Universities. These integration projects were repeated in the 1960s, but none of them were successful.
