"The explosion caused a great deal of material damage, breaking windows in various offices and in the ambassador's residence," explained Antonio Gonzalez-Zavala, who is in charge of business affairs for the embassy.
There were no victims in the Spanish embassy, as the plastic covering on the window stopped any flying glass, Gonzalez-Zavala said.
"Everyone reacted quickly and they then took us to a security zone," he said.
Sunday's wave of explosions in Baghdad was thought to have caused at least 15 deaths.
