The Holy Office of the Inquisition (Papal Inquistion) was concerned with heresy and heretics. In 1478, Spain set up its own Inquistion - the Spanish Inquisition. Initially, its sole function was to find insincere converts from Judaism. This was soon extended to insincere converts from Islam. Spain had a problem entirely of its own making: in the interests of uniformity, it put immense pressure on its large Jewish and Muslims to convert to Christianity. Those who refused were ultimately expelled from Spain. Later, the role of the Spanish Inquistion widened.

How did the Inquisition change the Church?

Roman Catholic AnswerThere is no "the Inquisition", there were several over maybe eight centuries. Most contemporary people when asking about "the" inquisition are referring to the Spanish Inquisition which was set up by King Gerdinand and Queen Isabella in 1478, and approved by Pope Sixtus IV. It was directed against lapsed converts from Judaism, crypto-Jews, and other apostates whose secret activities were dangerous to Church and State. I do not think the Inquistion changed the Church as it was basically set up to deal with apostates.
