Europa 1410 beehives in 0.4.5: where to build and what to sell

The short answer

Update 0.4.5 restores beehives to the construction menu under Private Structures. You can enter them, tend bees and harvest honey and beeswax to sell at the marketplace. The developer says uses in other production chains are planned for later updates; the current notes do not promise a fixed income per turn.

Before you start

  • Purchased-game update 0.4.5 or later. The September 17 launch notes listed beehives as missing.
  • Construction costs, colony requirements, harvest timing and the in-game controls have not been tested by Kingy.

Find the restored construction option

The update describes attracting a swarm, caring for it and harvesting its products, but does not publish a complete sequence of button labels or required items. A hive missing in the launch build is consistent with the September 17 known-issues list; the September 25 update changes that availability.

  1. Check the installed version before following a demo or launch-week beehive guide.
  2. Open the construction menu and look under Private Structures for the beehive.
  3. Read the displayed requirements and cost before placing it; record any missing prerequisite.
  4. After construction, enter the hive and inspect its colony and tending actions.

Check the harvest before planning income

Honey and beeswax can be sold in 0.4.5. Recipes consuming them were described as future work, so do not budget for an unannounced production chain. The update also mentions training bees for special tasks without spelling out their requirements or outcomes.

  1. Read the colony state and available tending actions in the hive.
  2. When a harvest action becomes available, record the honey and beeswax received.
  3. Check those items at the marketplace and read the current sale price before selling.

Compare today’s price with the city and its history

The same update adds the city’s best and worst prices, historical minima and maxima, and detailed price tooltips. Read the offered sale price as well as those comparisons: an earlier high price is not a sale available now. The notes give no fixed honey or beeswax price, harvest yield or payback period.

Keep the construction and tending costs alongside the actual harvest and sale result if you want to measure a hive’s return. That is a suggested player record, not a tested profit forecast.
