Abstract
The Spanish Inquisition inspected its own administrative districts, courts and finances, but also searched the ships and bookshops looking for heretical books or sheets, paintings, sculptures... This work analyzes the ships’ inspections, during the Habsburg period and tries to explain its origin, history, procedure and socio-cultural influence.
