Asegurada de incendios

Throughout the centuries, fire has not always been a useful tool for the man but has also proved a threat to the cities, and particularly for buildings. Especially when it comes to times when the main construction material was wood. It is for this reason that in the early nineteenth century created a partnership between property owners and residents of the city, in order to protect and indemnify each other in the event of fire in one of its buildings registered. This raises a kind of private insurance among certain owners, due to archaic and poor fire service. This association was established in 1822. This particular sign is on Cathedral Street.
