Structure file

A structure file (also called structure template) is an NBT file that stores small structures of blocks and entities. Structure files are used to store some structures such as end cities, igloos, and fossils.

Structure files are stored as .nbt files in data packs in the &#160;data/<namespace>/structure folder.

They can be saved and loaded using the Structure Block. When saved from Structure Blocks they are saved into the generated/<namespace>/structures subfolder in the world save folder. When no namespace is given, then the minecraft namespace is used.
