Megalith that served as a support for a Telefònica telephone pole

Located in the municipality of Saldes, the Dolmen de Molers, also known as the dolmen de Cal Xisquet de Maçaners, is a cultural heritage site. It is one of the most important megaliths found within the Berguedà region and is the northernmost of its kind. Excavated by Joan Serra i Vilaró in 1920, the site dates back to approximately 1500 BC during the Middle Bronze Age.

The structure consists of a large circular mound about 20 meters in diameter and 2.5 meters high. Inside sits a pentagonal chamber measuring 3.44 meters long by 1.37 meters wide. The chamber is covered by a stone weighing an estimated 8.5 tons. During its initial discovery, the monument was hidden by dense vegetation and was being used as a support for a telephone pole of the Telefònica company.

Excavations in 1920 and again in 2002 revealed various artifacts, including a bronze ring, two flint knives, shell and amber necklaces, and fragments of pottery. Human remains were also found, belonging to approximately twenty individuals. Among these were seven children, two of whom were between one and a half and four years old. The remaining adults were individuals who exceptionally exceeded forty years of age. These burials suggest the site may have held residents of the area or transient hunters and shepherds.
