Cebreros was a land of Celts; possibly the vetones put the seed of what today is our locality; from the time of the Roman Empire we can mention that there was a large granite bull that was on the banks of the Alberche and was the boundary between the province of Tarragona and Lusitana.

The first true historical reference of which we have evidence dates from 1301, year in which Fernando IV yields to his uncle, the infant Don Juan, the Villa de Cebreros; Towards the middle of that same century the Old Church was built.

In the sixteenth century we have to locate the economic outbreak of Cebreros, because its geographical location made it a transit area of ​​the Imperial Road from Toledo to Valladolid for traders and ranchers. At that time, glass and wooden foundries were built that once supplied the Monastery of El Escorial. This period of economic splendor was slowed down in the eighteenth century by a severe crisis.

Of the XIX it is possible to emphasize the construction of three mills for the manufacture of paper pulp and one for the manufacture of tanning and the proliferation of warehouses since it is at that time when the operation of the vines begins to have major relevance. In the twentieth century began the abandonment of field work, industries emerged and became the second home of migrants and many tourists for weekends and holidays.
