In the most ancient documented records, the figure of the midwife appears in connection with the reproductive processes of women.\r\n\r\nAs we shall see in this Exhibition for the Virtual Museum of Human Ecology, there were two important periods for the training of midwives in Spain. The one which lasted many centuries longer took place through the transmission of ancestral knowledge from woman to woman. Training to be a midwife in ancient times involved spending some years as an apprentice to an experienced midwife, who would pass on the tricks of the trade. Very often, this matrilineal transmission, this oral and practical teaching, was between different generations of women from the same family. Mother to daughter, grandmother to granddaughter, and sister to sister. It is not unusual to find families with successive generations of midwives, such as some we have included in this temporary exhibition.\r\n\r\nThe second period, from the late 18th century to the present day saw, after much regulating, a professionalising stage. During this period men, who had hitherto kept out of women's affairs, took the lead and this led to the institutionalising of delivery and to midwives becoming an unseen part of the heterogeneous group that make up an obstetric team in a hospital.\r\n\r\nIn this exhibition we will focus on an institution which this year, 2024, is celebrating its centenary and played a key role in the training of midwives for most of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century: la Casa de Salud de Santa Cristina (Santa Cristina Health Centre) in Madrid and, more precisely, the School of Midwifery organized by the Centre and was a basic pillar of the founders' objectives: to provide future midwives with a place to acquire quality theoretical and practical knowledge. After a brief introduction to the training of midwives in Spain, we will concentrate on the study of what was probably the most emblematic institution for training Spanish midwives.\r\n\r\nThe level of care at the centre was a transitional model between the old, private charity work and the new social provision. The building housed women from all social classes, although they did not mix.\r\n\r\nSince its inauguration in 1924 up to the end of its maternity activities in June 2004, in other words, almost 80 years, it attended over 120,000 deliveries and its wards trained around 2,000 midwives from all over Spain.\r\n\r\nWe would like to thank Erena Ba\u00f1uelos Chac\u00f3n (Gregoria Villafr\u00eda Arn\u00e1iz's granddaughter and Gracia Chac\u00f3n Villafr\u00eda's daughter) for donating her family photos of three generations trained at Santa Cristina practically from the opening to the closure of the maternity and midwifery wards,\u00a0as well as Francisco Glicerio Conde Mora, professor at the Salus Infirmorum University Nursing Center in C\u00e1diz, for the transfer of the original that illustrates the text \"The first stone of the Casa de Salud de Santa Cristina\".
