En España, donde el catolicismo ha tenido un importante arraigo durante hasta la actualidad, hizo que las heterodoxias que representaban protestantes y masones en la Edad Contemporánea tendiesen puentes de colaboración entre sí, cuando el marco legal de libertades lo permitía, en su lucha contra la enemiga común que representaba la Iglesia de Roma. Los estudios constatan que esto fue una realidad, sobretodo, desde 1868 hasta el inicio de la última guerra civil (1936) cuando existió en el marco constitucional un régimen de tolerancia y, puntualmente, libertad religiosa. La estrecha relación entre masones y protestantes quedó constatada en algunos proyectos comunes: apuesta por una ideología de liberalismo más progresista, democrático e incluso republicano (partidarios de la libertad religiosa), la lucha por una escuela laica o al menos neutra en materia religiosa, proyección hacia los sectores menos favorecidos de la sociedad, etc. Ahora bien, en cuanto a número de protestantes encuadrados en las filas de la masonería, los estudios — aún parciales ? indican que fue escasa la cifra debida, posiblemente, al también exiguo número de adeptos que tuvieron las distintas iglesias reformadas en España.
Catholicism, deeply rooted in Spain until nowadays, made the heterodoxies that Protestants and Masons represented in modern times build bridges of collaboration among them, when the legal framework for freedoms allowed it, in their fight against the common enemy which was the Church of Rome. Studies observe that this was a fact, above all from 1868 until the beginning of the last civil war (1936) when there was a regime of tolerance and, promptly, religious freedom, within the constitutional frame. The close relationship between Masons and Protestants was seen in some common projects: in the commitment to an ideology of liberalism that was more progressive, democratic and even republican (supporters of religious freedom), the fight for a secular school or at least neutral in religious matters, outreach to the less favoured sectors of society, etc. However, concerning the number of Protestants framed in the ranks of Freemasonry, studies — still partial — show that the number was low possibly due to the also limited number of followers that had the different reformed churches in Spain.
