Frequently asked questions
Urban beekeeping in Frankfurt is regulated by local laws, requiring beekeepers to register their hives and comply with rules concerning hive placement. Professional Alvéole beekeepers ensure compliance with all local requirements.
Urban beekeeping is safe and we have many successful bee programs in Frankfurt. At Alvéole, we work with a special breed of Italian honey bees selected for their docility. Honey bees are gentle creatures who (almost) never sting without reason. Unless they feel threatened, bees have no motivation to sting – in fact, once they sting, they lose their stinger along with a part of their abdomen, and die.
Wild bees are as peaceful as honey bees. They technically can sting, but they don’t. Docile and nonterritorial, they’re extremely gentle. Unless they’re being touched, they simply go about their business.
Urban beekeeping supports Frankfurt’s sustainability goals, as outlined in programs like the Frankfurt Green City initiative. It promotes urban biodiversity and provides environmental education opportunities. Beekeeping aligns with Frankfurt’s broader efforts to enhance green spaces, promote environmental stewardship, and create a more sustainable and resilient urban environment.
