Aberásturi
Aberásturi (Spanish pronunciation: [aβeˈɾastuɾi], Basque: Aberasturi) is a hamlet and concejo located in the municipality of Vitoria-Gasteiz, in Álava province, Basque Country, Spain. It is located in the eastern part of the municipality, some 8 km (5.0 mi) from the city center, along the Ertekaberri river at the foot of a mountain and on a hillside.

History

After the Cuadrilla de Añana separated from the Cuadrilla de Vitoria in 1840, Aberásturi remained within Vitoria. The village had previously belonged to the now extinct municipality of Elorriaga, which was absorbed by the municipality of Vitoria around 1870.
