    Accepted that there is a sensorial, psychological and cultural estrangement of nature in the city, it is valid to put the question for where the ideas about nature come from, the way they are expressed, in this case, in Medellin’s urban planning which is necessarily produced out of mentalities resulting from a nature-impoverished city experience. If not from direct and conscious experience, the discourse about nature in urbanism probably stems, to a large extent, from a torrent of imaginaries rooted in myths, that is, narratives with a strong symbolic charge, stratified in collective unconscious. Under a hermeneutical – interpretative approach, analysis is undertaken on three key moments in Medellin’s physical planning, represented in Future Medellin Plan (Plano Medellín Futuro, 1913), Pilot Plan (Plan Piloto, 1952) and the three versions of the Land Plan formulated between 1999 and 2006. A literal analysis of each plan is followed by a critical analysis of technical aspects and a critical analysis of circumstances, intentions and effects of the discourse of nature. Finally, the interpretative analysis starts on ten explicative keys about the way the discourse and imaginaries of nature is produced and the shapes it adopts in this documents. The study concludes that there is a strong unconscious symbolic charge in the way nature is represented in Medellin’s urban planning, where is possible to identify clear links to the formative myths of western civilization, catholic heritage and the genesis of social structures in Colombia and Antioquia.
