Summary

The Royal Armoury of Tolosa was a workshop where about thirty salaried craftsmen were manufacturing armours for the army. Master ironsmiths originating from Milan and coming from Eugui settled in Tolosa, transmitting their skills to local workers. The accounts from the 1645-1688 period allow us to analyse professional categories, remuneration, work organisation, duration of a work session, evolution of salaries and purchasing power.
