    The Molar watchtower is one of the six old defensive watchtowers of the Mayrit mountain range. Visibly rebuilt, it allowed an extensive view of the surrounding valleys and allowed communication between different towers by means of fire signals or, failing that, smoke. These messages could travel 200 kilometers in 45 minutes, eliminating the Christian factor from the Christian troops. Thanks to its strategic positioning, today its foot serves as a viewpoint of the Sierra Norte and Cuerda Larga.
