when did spain take over the canary islands
Conquest of the Canary Islands The conquest took place between 1402 and 1496. It was not an easy task, militarily, given the resistance of the Guanche aboriginals in some islands.

Real conquest. This term defines the conquest carried out directly by the Crown of Castile, during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs who armed and partly financed the conquest of the islands that were still to be dominated: Gran Canaria, La Palma and Tenerife. In the year 1496, the conquest came to an end with the dominion of the island of Tenerife, integrating the Canary Archipelago in the Crown of Castile.
