Village des Bories is an open-air museum of 20 or so dry stone huts located 1.5 km west of the Provençal village of Gordes, in the Vaucluse department of France. The area was once an outlying district of the village, under the official name of 'Les Savournins', while the grouping of huts were called 'Les Cabanes' in local parlance.

The huts were built using locally extracted, 10 to 15 cm-thick, limestone slabs, going by the name of “lauses”.
Out of the 28 stone buildings still extant on the site.
