After the Cuadrilla de Añana separated from the Cuadrilla de Vitoria in 1840, Aberásturi remained within Vitoria.[3] The village had previously belonged to the now extinct municipality of Elorriaga, which was absorbed by the municipality of Vitoria around 1870.[4]
In 1960, Aberásturi had a population of 242. This figured halved by 2000, and has remained stable since then.[5][6]
The Catholic parish church is under the patronage of Saint Stephen. It has a neoclassical portico designed by Justo Antonio de Olaguibel, built during the early nineteenth century. The rest of the building dates from the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century.[7]
