Mirador del Molino: tower mill
Since there would be no reason to build a windmill in this remote place, and when equipped with sails they appeared very fake, I assume this is just a mock mill, effectively to dress up a lookout tower.

Los Majanos: tower mill
Despite the small size of this, this is apparently a real mill, built in 1905.

Molino Quemado: tower mill
For many years in its restored form, this mill was surrounded by an open cactus garden, and used as a location to display various outsize models of (mostly) kitchen equipment. In the most recent development (2023/4), the garden has been done away with, replaced with a fenced in area of hard landscaping and a visitor centre, with the models moved over the road to the undeveloped land there. To link the mill centre to the other land, which is also used for visitor parking, there is a rather incongruous traffic light controlled pedestrian crossing - rather unexpected in the rural environment the mill occupies. The expectation is that the mill will reopen to visitors, but as of Feb 2024 that was not the case - the information signs have yet to be completed, and the mill and visitor centre remain closed.
