To reach this objective, a methodology has been developed that includes historic data, stories and testimonies of people that have kept in their memory, the colours that have been part of the city´s image. Additionally, prospective samples or "calas” were obtained to discover in situ, colours that were hidden in the walls and other facades´ elements of some historical patrimony buildings. This enabled to make a historical colour palette, which serves as a basic instrument to be taken in account in several chromatic proposals regarding buildings and urban sections inside Cuenca´s Historic Center.Keywords: historical center of Cuenca, facades, palette, colour proposals. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo principal identificar los colores que históricamente han estado presentes en las fachadas de la arquitectura civil del Centro Histórico de Cuenca. Para alcanzar este objetivo se ha desarrollado una metodología que parte del estudio de la historia, relatos y testimonios de quienes han guardado en la memoria los colores que han formado parte de la imagen histórica de la ciudad. Complementariamente las calas de prospección realizadas en algunas edificaciones patrimoniales para descubrir in situ, los colores que guardaban los muros y otros elementos de fachada permitieron elaborar una paleta de colores históricos de Cuenca, que ha servido de base para la aplicación de varias propuestas cromáticas en diferentes edificaciones y tramos dentro del Centro Histórico de la ciudad.Palabras clave: centro histórico de Cuenca, fachadas, paleta, propuesta de color.
