This ministry existed in two different periods. The first one was during the dictatorship of Franco and the Spanish transition to democracy (1957-1977) and the second one during the democratic period, from 2004 to 2010, when Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero announced that the Ministry of Housing would be eliminated.[2]

Its head office was in Madrid.[3]
