This paper analyses the role of housing as determining factor for the welfare of Madrid's population during the change of the XIXth century to the XXth century. Through medical reports and the contributions of hygienists and social physicians, it will be demonstrated that unhealthy housing in Madrid became a negative factor for the mortality and the morbidity of its residents, in such a way that it made physicians, town planners, and politicians to be preocupied. It will also be discussed how this problem of unhealthy housing started to take part of the so-called social question and the proposals for intervention always framed within the principles of the liberal hygiene, -which intented to combine public health and town planning politics.
