Workers' Communist Party (in Spanish: Partido Comunista de los Trabajadores) was a political party in Spain. Formed in 1977 by the Left Opposition of PCE.[2]

PCT had a youth wing called Workers' Communist Youth (Juventudes Comunistas de los Trabajadores).[3] In December 1977 it initiated the publication Manifiesto. Soon Manifiesto was substituted by Bandera Comunista, which was published in 1978.[4]

In 1980 PCT unified with Communist Party of Spain (8th and 9th Congresses) to form the Unified Communist Party of Spain (PCEU).
