What is an orangery or orangerie?

The modern day orangery or orangerie is a type of home/house extension that is usually built using stone, brick, or hardwood, although developments in glass technologies and other materials including insulation have produced feasible alternatives to a traditional orangery construction.

The main difference with a conservatory is in the construction of its roof – a conservatory will have more than 75 per cent of its roof glazed, while an orangery will have less than 75 per cent glazed. Domestic orangeries also typically feature a roof lantern.
