Housed in a former mountain pasture chalet, the Maison de l'Abeille Noire was inaugurated in December 2019. Through interactive tools and short films, come and learn about the history of the European dark bee and its daily life in its natural environment. From its journey in the Alps to the production of honey, follow Apis Mellifera Mellifera as it is known in Latin through its own adventures and those of our local beekeepers. This centre is associated with the European dark bee conservatory in the Encombres Valley, just a few miles away.
