I have an Apple TV in storage at my parents’ place. I’m wondering if there’s a way I could check if it was plugged in and, therefore, accessed by anyone. I had it under the “Devices” section and deleted it right now, but I can’t recall if a password was required when starting the Apple TV. Was it? Also, what information could've been seen by them?

Looks like it Remove a device from Find Devices on iCloud.com - Apple Support. However, sounds like overkill to me. If the ATV is turned on from an unfamiliar outside location, it and most Apps will anyway force a relogin. You can test this out easily. IMO best to simply keep it in your person and/or lock it away in a safe place.
Additionally, if you are router-savvy, you can block it on your router.
Yes.
Thanks for your response. Is there a way to remotely prevent any future access to my account? Will removing the Apple TV from my devices help prevent any further access attempts?
Not possible unfortunately, ask your parents.
Just to clarify, is it possible that anyone with access to the Apple TV who turns it on has access to it without any verification or my knowledge, including its apps like Photos?
How to check if someone accessed my Apple TV while in storage?
