Greniers is masculine. It derives from the Latin "granarium" (grain storage), a neuter noun. During the transition from Latin to Old French, many neuter nouns were reassigned to either masculine or feminine gender. "Granarium" became masculine in French, likely due to phonetic evolution and analogy with other masculine -ier nouns that developed from Latin origins. The masculine gender was then maintained through Old and Middle French into modern French.
