After a period of stagnation, the town of Madrid resumed its spatial and demographic growth in the second quarter of the 15th century; from that time through the early 1500s, the town nearly doubled its built-up area and more than doubled its population. The economy also grew; Madrid went from a predominantly peasant town —craftsmanship being rural too, except for the production of some goods— to a center of industrial production and liberal arts as well as a regional market of far-reaching influence. In addition, society evolved. The 15th century was a period of consolidation of important lineages and of artisans and merchants joining the class of the knights. The documentary sources, most notably the wills, remarkably attest to this society's activities and spiritual concerns.
