A quick definition of droit de gite:

Term: DROIT DE GITE

Definition: In old French law, the "droit de gite" was a responsibility of a person who owned land in the royal domain to provide a place to stay and food for a royal group who were traveling for official business.

A more thorough explanation:

DROIT DE GITE

The term "droit de gite" is a French legal term that means "right of lodging." It refers to the duty of a commoner who owns land in the royal domain to provide lodging and food to a royal party traveling on royal business.

For example, if a king or queen was traveling through a commoner's land on official business, the commoner would be required to provide them with a place to stay and food to eat. This was seen as a duty and obligation of the commoner to the royal family.

Another example would be if a group of soldiers were traveling through a commoner's land on their way to battle. The commoner would be required to provide them with a place to stay and food to eat as they were on official business for the king or queen.

The examples illustrate the definition of "droit de gite" by showing how it was a duty and obligation of commoners to provide lodging and food to the royal family or those on official business for the king or queen. This was seen as a way for the commoners to show their loyalty and support to the monarchy.
