• Museum of Honey and Beekeeping

  • The Honey and Beekeeping Museum has two distinct parts: the museum of antiquities; and the living museum.

    In the museum of antiques are showned utensils formerly used by beekeepers as well as  products produced by hives. Taste up to 5 different types of honey and learn about the evolution of this ancient activity.
     In the living museum, safely, visitors can contact with bees. Inside the giant hive, you can enjoy the outside work of bees, or the work done in a glass hive, with the queen bee. The bravest, fitted with appropriate apparel, are challenged to see the bees up close, find the various existing types of apiaries and the different types of hives.
