Molo wurde damals gelegentlich von muslimischen Piraten aus Mindanao heimgesucht und wurde hauptsächlich von den Jesuiten und Dominikaner christianisiert. Zentrum der Stadtgemeinde ist der Plaza Molo wo auch jährlich im Juni das Fiesta de Molo stattfindet. Hier befindet sich auch die historische Iglesia de Santa Ana oder besser bekannt als die Molo Kirche.
