The expression topology of being that appears in Heidegger´s work in 1947, already points towards the author´s increasing tendency to think his great question - the question of being - in a quite different way from what prevailed in his first works, especially Being and Time. Place and language, terms directly ingrained in the topology idea, take on a growing importance in his thought, bearing an essential connection to each other. However, the space concept, inseparable from that of place, has frequently been put aside in several studies of the heideggerian topology, in spite of its fundamental importance for the subject. This thesis aims, firstly, to accompany, in the ambit of Heidegger´s work, the different elaborations the space and place concepts went through, rescuing the highly significant role of the former. Finally, starting from an understanding of the nature of its reciprocal connection, to show that the space and topological conceptions in Heidegger concerns, ultimately, language itself.
