Stable

In architecture, a stable is a structure designed to house and care for livestock, primarily horses. Traditionally built with durable materials like stone, wood, or brick, stables are characterized by functional layouts that include individual stalls, feeding areas, and ventilation systems to ensure animal health and comfort. Architectural considerations often reflect the importance of hygiene, durability, and ease of access, while in some historic or estate settings, stables may also feature refined detailing that complements the surrounding architecture.
