The Cartuja de Talamanca de Jarama is a group of agricultural farms from the 16th-17th century that preserves much of the architectural and cultural memory of the installation of the Carthusian friars of the Monastery of El Paular.

Within the successive phases of restoration of the complex, work is being done on the main access to the enclosure (cornices, ashlars, shield...). The objective is to clean, rehabilitate the construction elements that make up the main access, eliminate pathological processes and consolidate its factories. The wooden gate, its structure and hardware are also being restored.

The Arroyomolinos Tower is a rectangular construction with rounded corners on the outside, built in the Late Middle Ages around 1470 by Juan de Oviedo.

The entire immediate surroundings of the Tower have been the subject of different archaeological interventions and restorations since the 1980s. Currently, the moat is being intervened, that is, its defensive perimeter consisting of a wall that descended vertically like a scarp until reaching the bottom. It is one of the most common constructive resources in this type of fortresses.

The objective is to consolidate the state of conservation of the northern scarp and ditch, which are highly degraded due to the detachment of ceramic elements and the excessive growth of vegetation.
