The Progressive Republican Party (, PRP) was a Spanish political party created in 1880 by
Manuel Ruiz Zorrilla. Ruiz Zorrilla wrote his testament in January 1895 declaring his successor, and thus the reins of the party were passed to
José María Esquerdo upon Ruiz Zorrilla's death.
The latter helped to create the
Republican Union in 1903. Following the death of Esquerdo, the party dissolved in June 1912, integrating into the
Reformist Party of
Melquíades Álvarez and
Gumersindo de Azcárate.
