Lipizzaner horses of the Spanish riding school of Vienna
The bloodlines of the Lipizzaner stallions at the Spanish Riding School in Vienna can be traced back to the 18th century and have never been interrupted. There is no other horse breed in the world with equally high breeding and training standards. More than 70 stallions from the race of the famous white horses live in the Hofburg in Vienna.
They are the heart of this centuries-old tradition that has been preserved until today. Just like 400 years ago, the horses are trained in Vienna by riders of the Spanish Riding School, and are then presented to millions of interested spectators from all over the world.
