The sénatoreries were the great properties distributed by Napoléon Bonaparte to senators in an implicit exchange for their docility towards his regime, as it became less and less democratic, starting on 4 January 1803.

For example, Emmanuel-Joseph Sieyès received a large domain near Cosne-sur-Loire.
