Abstract
This article is a historical research that focuses on the site where the National Directorate of Health of the Armed Forces, the Central Hospital, the General Directorate of Peripheral Care, the Supply Division and the Directorate of Architecture and Hospital Engineering are currently located. It has belonged to the Uruguayan State since its creation. During the decades of 1880 and 1890, it was given on loan to one of the oldest clubs in our country, the Montevideo Cricket Club. The first two soccer matches of which there are historical references took place there. Of those first years, there are no photographs of that area, but there is an oil painting made around 1930-34 by a member of the Cricket that until now the only thing that is known of the person is the name, A.W. Hall. Hall. This painting is currently located in the aforementioned clubhouse. Received for review: February 2022 Accepted for publication: May 2022 Correspondence: Bulevar General Artigas 2425.
