HISTORY OF THE STREET: The name of the street is simply HISTORIA (History), it is the name of one of the streets in the city of Cartagena de Indias (Colombia). It is located in the San Diego neighborhood, within the historic center of the city. The history of Calle del Tablón in the Historic Center of Cartagena is linked to an epidemic of 1876, known as "el tablón" (the plank), and its possible origin from a wooden plank used to cross flooded streets. Although they tried to change its name, the inhabitants kept the original, which is because it was a necessary passage for burials from the San Diego cemetery.
