A study of historical seismicity in the Province of Caldas was made by means of a systematic search of documental sources such as files, manuscripts, printed documents, newspapers and magazines, aiming to widen the temporary time lapse and the precision of earthquakes that have left remains and have caused considerable damages in the population. This problem was approached by the use of intensive and extensive searching methods. The intensity was assigned using the European Macroseismic Scale (EMS-98). Finally, a site catalogue is proposed for the events that have caused a greater effect in the state of Caldas, as well as damage degree and intensity maps for the major earthquakes as those of February 4, 1938; July 30, 1962; and November 23, 1979.
