Spain at the 2004 Summer Olympics
Sporting event delegation
Spain competed at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens , Greece, from August 13 to 29, 2004. This nation has competed in every Summer Olympic Games since its official debut in 1920. Spain, however, boycotted two editions, the 1936 Summer Olympics in Nazi Germany , and the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne when it joined the Dutch-led boycott , as a protest to the Soviet invasion of Hungary. The Spanish Olympic Committee sent the nation's third largest delegation in history to the Games. A total of 317 athletes, 177 men and 140 women, competed in 26 sports.
