200.000 bees that were living on the roof of Notre Dame have survived the fire blaze! These three hives were put on the cathedral’s rooftop in 2013 for a biodiversity project by Nicolas Géant. He said that the bees were going in and out of their homes this morning. Each hive produces approximately 25 kg of honey each year which is sold to the Notre Dame staff.
Nicolas Géant was extremely happy to announce that his bees have survived the fire that was raging for over 12 hours on Monday. The fire destroyed the spire and almost all of the ornate centuries-old roof of Notre Dame.
He says: ‘Until this morning, I had had no news,’.
‘At first, I thought that the three hives had burned but I had no information after Monday’s fire. Then I saw from satellite images that this was not the case and then the cathedral spokesman told me that they were going in and out of the hives.’ – he adds.

Thank you God! Just Beecause!
Where’s the scaffolding?
The masonry looks remarkably clear of soot?
“Then I saw from satellite images that this was not the case” What sort of access to satellite images does Monsieur Géant have?
Or does he not want to loose out on his 50% mark-up?
M Lavercombe, you apparently are not in favor of bees atop Notre Dame. Is it the “50% markup” that annoys you? I’m wondering 50 percent of what? Also, you refer to the condition of the church’s roof as revealed by the Daily Mail’s satellite photo as though the photo was taken after the fire. How do you know when it was taken?
Thank you. Before this, I heard only that the hives had survived, which made me unsure if the bees or just the hives were intact. I was still very much wondering about that when I saw this post.
Yes! Beejus saves. All is well.
I didn’t know there were bees up there in the first place. Now that I do I am so happy to hear they are ok 🙂
An amazing miracle!
Good news in the midst of disaster. With thanks to God.
I wonder if the smoke kept them calm…
I was wondering about them and my heart is tickled pink now knowing that they are safe . This are awesome news !!
Another miracle has occurred notwithstanding the tragic fire.
Well smoke tends to make them inactive..hince we smoke to calm them…long as the flames didn’t get to them they likely went to sleep.
Such good news!
This is such wonderful news ….

BEES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MY SYMBOL THEY ARE THE MOST ADMIRABLE CREATURES ON EARTH I AM SO GLAD THEY SURVIVED
Here is a prayer from the Catholic service for the Easter Vigil (the evening before Easter Sunday). It is the blessing of the Easter Candle. Bees are mentioned twice!
“On this, your night of grace, O holy Father,
accept this candle, a solemn offering,
the work of bees and of your servants’ hands,
an evening sacrifice of praise,
this gift from your most holy Church.
But now we know the praises of this pillar,
which glowing fire ignites for God’s honor,
a fire into many flames divided,
yet never dimmed by sharing of its light,
for it is fed by melting wax,
drawn out by mother bees
to build a torch so precious.”
