The heat pump

So, what is the Heat pump?  
When air conditioning was first developed, it was not a device that made cool, it was a device that moved heat from one place to another.  It absorbed heat (which made the medium, water, air etc cooler).  Then discharged it in a place that where the heat did not cause a problem.  So, what if I wanted to absorb heat from one place, then use that heat warm a structure?  Could that be done?
