In the castle of Molina, it is worth highlighting the fortress surrounded by walls and the so-called Tower of Aragon. The fortress dates back to the 12th century and was built by Manrique de Lara, the first lord of Molina. The Tower of Aragon was built on the site of the Arab castle, and the latter on a previous Celtiberian fort.
