The production of urban space in Latin America turns out to be a social product resulting
from a historical process in which natural space undergoes significant transformations. This paper
analyses how the urban history of Ibagué (Colombia) is related to three historical processes crossed
by nature, identifying common aspects with other Latin American cities: nature as a limit to urban
growth (conquest and colony), nature as an artifice of urban space (modern city), and nature as a
transition zone between the city and the countryside (metropolitan edge). Methodologically, the
article is approached from the historical perspective proposed by Fernand Braudel as the longue
durée. To this end, an analysis of primary sources was carried out. These sources allowed us to see
how urban space was constructed and planned throughout history. The primary sources emphasized
written sources: chronicles of the Indies, royal ordinances, municipal decrees, pilot plans for urban
growth, and urban development plans. Visual sources were also used: maps, sketches, engravings,
and photographs to construct an image of the city and its relationship with nature. The results
showed the importance of urban planning by considering the relationship between urban space
and nature as two inseparable elements and providing elements for reflecting on contemporary
environmental problems. [-]
