Viscount of Molelos (Portuguese: Visconde de Molelos) is a Portuguese title of nobility. It was created in 1826 by John VI, king of Portugal, for General Francisco de Paula Vieira da Silva de Tovar, 12th Lord of the Honour of Molelos and 1st Baron of Molelos, as a reward for his role in the seizing of the Uruguayan province of Río de la Plata during the Portuguese-Uruguayan war.
