Our museum offers a historical and educational view of the wonderful world of bees with period photos, material for all ages, anecdotes, a set of educational panels, an educational video on the language of bees and a glass hive
The Living Bee Museum brings an original touch to the evocation of lavender, queen and nectar of Provence. The museum, the playful folly of a passionate beekeeper, presents historical and educational collections through tools, photos and documents, tracing the saga of the insect through the centuries. But it also puts theory into practice, by presenting a video on the "language" of the bee and by exhibiting a glass hive where you can contemplate 30,000 workers at work. Fingers and taste buds, because at the end of the visit of these 50 hives, the guide offers a honey-based cocktail, and an invitation to delight.
