En 1899, il cree laCompana Molet de Carburo de Calcio1 qui produit du carbure de calcium dans une usine construite au bord du Rio Primero, a proximite et en amont de la ville de Cordoba2. Dans le but d'approvisionner cette usine en electricite, il fait construire un barrage hydroelectrique sur la riviere dans les premieres annees du xxe siecle - l'actuel Museo Usina Molet est installe dans les locaux de l'usine hydroelectrique ainsi developpee2. En desaccord avec ses associes, Molet vend ses actions et quitte la direction de l'entreprise en 19052. Alfred Molet poursuit son action dans les chemins de fer, et obtient en 1908 une concession de chemin de fer qui l'autorise a construire deux lignes a travers les provinces de Misiones et deCorrientes3.

"This place gives you a good idea of the style of the time (300 years ago).Was oine of the first permanent buildfigs in colonial Cordoba. Small number of interesting exhibits. Few visitors. Small entrance charge. Near the centre of town, i reckon it is worth half an hour of your time.. "
"All the tourists go here first. Lovely old buildings. Wander around the school buildings, now part of the university, and try the ancient desks if you fit. Fascinating old archival documents on display...and fascinating young students too (both girls and boys).. Difficult to avert one´s gaze."
"The Cordoba Cathedral -'Nuestra Señora de la Asunción'- is the oldest church in Argentina and a beautiful and active one. Located in Plaza San Martín Square, shows impressive at night, and rich and complex interiors when you visit at open hours. Many locals visit this church, and prays to many ima..."ges, christs, saints and so on. Altar and others bright like gold... because it was build with golf leaf, a spaniard technique ('pan de oro') from XVI century, similar you may find in other catholic colonial churches in Perú.
