History
Los dólmenes de Las Peñezuelas y de San Adrián, muestran la existencia de poblamiento humano en la localidad desde la Edad de Bronce.
Más tarde, ya en la Edad Media, Granucillo quedó integrado en el Reino de León, cuyos monarcas habrían emprendido la repoblación de la localidad.
Posteriormente, en la Edad Moderna, Granucillo estuvo integrado en la provincia de las Tierras del conde de Benavente y dentro de esta en la Merindad de Vidriales y la receptoría de Benavente, cuyos condes erigieron un castillo y antiguo palacio en la localidad.
Al reestructurarse las provincias y crearse las actuales en 1833, Granucillo pasó a formar parte de la provincia de Zamora, dentro de la Región Leonesa, quedando integrada en 1834 en el partido judicial de Benavente.
