Cabanes du Breuil, Archaeological site and historical monument in Saint-André-d'Allas, France.

The complex features several stone huts arranged in an arc formation on the uphill side of a traditional Périgord farm at Calpalmas.

Land records from 1841 document the construction of stone outbuildings and a farmhouse, which received official monument status recognition in 1968.

The structures display regional agricultural architecture through their distinctive three-part design: stone base, corbelled vault, and bell-shaped tile roof.

Visitors can explore the site throughout the year and participate in educational workshops about traditional dry stone construction techniques.

Five connected huts share unified roofing that creates continuous coverage, demonstrating advanced stone masonry methods of the Dordogne region.
