Pigeonniers are dovecotes, a specific type of structure for housing pigeons, known primarily from France, where they once served as a status symbol. Built for the production of pigeon meat, eggs, and manure, they became popular during the Middle Ages, particularly between the 16th and 19th centuries. The structures range from small rooftop structures to large, freestanding towers, often supported by legs to deter rodents.
Many pigeonniers can still be found, particularly in rural areas of France, and are considered an important architectural heritage.

A pigeonnier (French for dovecote) is traditionally a freestanding, often tower-shaped building from the Middle Ages, originally intended to house pigeons for food and as a status symbol. Today, these historic buildings are often converted into unique, charming holiday homes or gîtes, known for their tranquil settings and characteristic architecture.
