The king Ferdinand IV gave the Molar estate to the gentleman Lope Chico for his services during the war against the Muslims.In 1430, the castle was converted into an important fortress.
The village then belonged to the dukes of Alcalá, until feudal domains were abolished in the 19th century. It was under the jurisdiction of Utrera until 1919, year in which it became an independent municipality.
