Caspar Pflug fue uno de los maestros de hacer coches que llegaron a Madrid a finales del siglo XVIII procedentes de París. Después de trabajar como oficial en el taller de Andrés Tadeo Pérez, tuvo que hacer frente a los recelos de un gremio que le puso todo tipo de trabas para que pudiera establecerse por su cuenta, a pesar incluso de estar vigente un nuevo marco legislativo con el que se había alcanzado una relativa liberalización del férreo reglamento corporativo. Fruto de ese enfrentamiento fue el proceso cuya documentación se guarda en el Archivo General de Simancas, y que analizamos en el presente trabajo. En el expediente se conserva el bello dibujo de una berlina, y toda una serie de datos sobre el gremio madrileño en el que antaño se agruparon los maestros de hacer coches.
Caspar Pflug was one of coach-builders who arrived in Madrid from Paris at the end of the eighteenth century. After working as a skilled worker in Andrés Tadeo Pérez workshop, he had to cope with the distrust of the members of the coach-building trade who hampered him to set up on his own, although there was a new legal framework in force that had led to a relative liberalization of the iron corporate regulation. A result of this conflict was the procedure whose documents are stored in the General Archive of Simancas, and that we will analyse in the current paper. In that file, the beautiful drawing of a berlin carriage is kept as well as a series of data about the Madrid trade that once gathered the best coach-builders.
