Between 1850 and 1855, the optical telegraph service provided communication between the different important cities at the time. This tower was part of the Madrid-Valencia line and part of it still stands today. As is common in these works, the towers were located in strategic places that also allow us to appreciate wonderful views of the surrounding landscape and in this case also of the Alarcón reservoir where the Júcar and Gritos rivers meet.
