Venturada has kept a Moorish watch tower (atalaya) of 9.20 m in height, 1.34 m in thickness, and 5.7 m in diameter. Venturada increased in significance in the 12th century, being located on the road to the Pass of Somosierra, the main connection between the two most important Castilian towns, Burgos and Toledo.
Once part of Uceda, Venturada was granted the status of villa on 24 July 1593 by King Philip II.
