Subsequently to the Roman presence, the territory of Molar is practically uninhabited and the population centre moves to Garcia. Garcia<\/strong>, which, initially dependent on Siurana, would eventually become independent and transform into a centre of power governing the territories of Garcia, El Molar, El Masroig, Falset and Pradell.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

With the arrival of the Christians, Count Ramon Berenguer IV gives the lands of El Molar to Poblet Monastery<\/strong>, as it is read in a document from 1156. Specifically, a set of orchards is given, and the Mas d\u2019en Bas<\/strong> (actualment conegut com a Mas del Severino), uns espais que pertanyien a la Garcia sarra\u00efna per\u00f2 que es troben dins el terme del Molar.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On the other hand, in the year 1194, King Alfonso the Chaste ceded a set of lands to the monks of Saint Bru (which would constitute the birth of the Charterhouse of Escaladei<\/strong> i part of the historic Priorat) which included the estate Pearl of Priorat<\/strong>. Within this land of El Molar, where Mas Mart\u00ed is currently located or Mas dels Frares<\/strong>, aquests monjos van construir-hi un petit monestir que funcionar\u00e0 fins la desamortitzaci\u00f3 de Mendiz\u00e1bal, el 1835.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It is also known that in the year 1309 part of the lands of the current municipality of El Molar passed into the hands of the Barony of Enten\u00e7a<\/strong> (Guillem d\u2019Enten\u00e7a i Montcada, specifically) and, upon his death, they were incorporated into a political-territorial entity that would ultimately become the County of Prades<\/strong> and the Barony of Enten\u00e7a, when King James II cedes these territories to his son Ramon Berenguer of Aragon, who exchanges it with his brother Peter of Aragon (in exchange for the County of Emp\u00faries). Peter of Aragon will benefit from this exchange of lands, when various discoveries begin to be made Mines<\/a><\/strong> (especially of galena) in the lands of the present-day Priorat.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

During these first centuries, the people of El Molar had not yet formed, and the main road even passed by the side of Mas d\u2019en Bas in the direction of El Lloar and Garcia. The old nucleus of the current village was known as the Masos del Molar<\/strong><\/a> it was not an independent population until l\u2019any 1850, quan finalment se segrega de Garcia<\/strong>. Vol dir aix\u00f2 que El Molar no existia? Quan es passeja per la poblaci\u00f3 es pot discernir perfectament quines s\u00f3n les cases m\u00e9s antigues, vora l\u2019esgl\u00e9sia, amb una min\u00fascula Pla\u00e7a Major testimoni d\u2019aquest passat. Un nucli original format per Cal Bargall\u00f3, Cal Vilanova, Cal Claro Vell, Cal Coco i Cal Coco Vell.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Aquest nucli urb\u00e0 s\u2019ampliar\u00e0 a partir del s XIX, creixent en direcci\u00f3 a l\u2019actual Ajuntament i la carretera, una construcci\u00f3 r\u00e0pida que dur\u00e0 a una separaci\u00f3 per carrers segons les difer\u00e8ncies socials i econ\u00f2miques.<\/p>\n
