The traditional stallion parade attracted hundreds of spectators to Moritzburg. The Saxon stud administration presented the breeding stallions of all breeds in a four-hour program, as the organizers announced. More than 130 horses were on display, including the entire stallion stock of the state stud. Further stallion parades will take place on September 14 and 20.
Horse breeding is a valuable cultural heritage in Saxony, said Minister of Agriculture Georg-Ludwig von Breitenbuch at the opening ceremony. "For over 100 years, the Moritzburg Stallion Parades have captivated the public with their varied program," said the CDU politician. The Saxon stud administration plays a key role in preserving the diversity of horse breeds and plays an important role in training and further education.
