La Puebla Tower

La Puebla Tower

Mula

Functionally, this is a farmstead tower built during the repopulation of the area. The tower served as a center of autonomous management for the farming community, in this case Moorish. Later, the tower was used as a place of worship, which is why locals know it as the "Old Hermitage." The transformation of the tower into a hermitage occurred after the expulsion of the Moriscos in 1613. Therefore, from the 17th century onward, the tower took on the function of a hermitage dedicated to Our Lady of Solitude.
