Founded in Roman times and previously known as Altessano (Autsan in the Piedmontese language), it was divided into Altessano Superiore and Altessano Inferiore in the sixteenth century. The upper town was chosen by the House of Savoy as a location for a hunting palace, and its modern name is derived from the Latin for hunting, ars venatoria.
Turin and Venaria Reale are the only Piedmontese municipalities with more than one Savoy residence: the seventeenth century Royal Palace of Venaria (included in the UNESCO Heritage List in 1997) and the nineteenth-century royal apartments of Borgo Castello, located in La Mandria Regional Park are in Venaria Reale.

A 19th-century distinguished citizen of Venaria Reale was Michele Lessona, an illustrious scientist and decorated Senatore del Regno.
