Aigner Honig

Welcome to the Aigner family. A farm-run apiary with 150 - 170 bee colonies in a special location on the Lower Inn nature reserve.

The wax sticks, which are made by Mrs Aigner herself, are something very special. A wax stick is an almost endlessly long wax candle that is placed in various shapes and then decorated. These wax strings were traditionally made by candle makers, who pulled a wick through a wax bath around 30 times and wound the ends onto large drums. Bleached beeswax was used for this.

The quality seal farm with farm shop offers an interesting programme for schools and groups: a tour of the farm with the processing rooms and the shop, as well as a tasting of honey, mead and gingerbread.
