This street is located in one of the highest points in the city. In it was the old house of the Cid, at the height of numbers 29 and 31 of the street. The Cid's house was demolished in 1855.

This house of the Cid became a theater from 1761 to 1832, the year in which the theatrical performances began in the new Principal Theater. It was the Balda theater.

The construction of this church began in the 13th century on the site of an old mosque. In the second half of the fourteenth century it was expanded. Formerly it was called the church of San Jorge. Only the Romanesque style bell tower remains from these periods, very archaic for the time (13th century), and which was restored during the years 2000-2005.

In the 15th century a new church was built, which will later be decorated in a baroque style inside (17th century), and another reform in the 19th century gives it its current appearance.

The church was the headquarters of the Cofradía de Ballesteros de Valencia.
