Council of Toledo (1512-1513)

The Council of Toledo (1512-1513) was a regional church meeting in Spain where bishops and church leaders gathered to discuss and address religious and political issues of the time. Key topics included reforms within the church, the influence of the monarchy, and efforts to combat heresy. The council aimed to strengthen church authority, improve discipline among clergy, and align church policies with the Spanish crown’s interests. It reflected the close relationship between church and state in Spain during this period and sought to reinforce Catholic teachings amid the political and religious changes of the early 16th century.
