In earlier articles of the first author it was shown how to construct an inverse semigroup from any tiling of Euclidean space. Such semigroups are called tiling semigroups. In the paper a categorical basis for such constructions is given in terms of an appropriate group acting partially and without fixed points on an inverse category associated with the tiling.
