This street is named after a type of leather tanners who in the Middle Ages worked with deer, roe deer, fallow deer and sheep skins to make gloves and parchments.

The building on the left, from 1870, was dedicated to cockfighting, a hobby that lasted until 1936. It was renovated in the years 1990-1991 to be used as an exhibition hall. It belongs to the Consorci de Museus de la Comunitat Valenciana.
