The current territory was initially denominated "Tierradentro". On July 24, 1869 it was established as a "Corregimiento" (Co-regency). In 1877 it changed its category to a "Distrito" (District). On June 16, 1880, it was established as a Municipality and given the name Segovia in honor of the Spanish city of Los Alcázares. By "Decreto 156 del 3 de Junio de 1884" (Decree 156 of June 3, 1884) it was again restablished as a "Distrito". On September 17, 1884 it was again redesignated as a Municipality.

The coat of arms is described as follows (original in Spanish): "Composed of the flags of Colombia and the Municipality of Segovia, and inside depicting work in the gold mines and the use of agricultural resources, the sword and spears represent the sacrifice of the heroes in the battles of independence."
