la grange

barn

C'est un grand bâtiment à la campagne où l’on garde du foin, des outils ou des animaux.

The French word "grange" means a "barn" in English. It refers to a building on a farm used to store hay, grain, or house livestock.

Synonyms and nuances:

grange: Typically used for a traditional rural building, often made of wood or stone, used for storage or sheltering animals.
hangar: Refers more to a large, often metal structure for storing vehicles, machinery, or goods, not specifically agricultural.
étable: Specifically designates a cowshed or stable for housing animals.
remise: A storage place, usually smaller and for tools or vehicles, not primarily for agricultural products.

So, "grange" emphasizes a rustic agricultural building mainly used for storing crops or sheltering animals.
