Horse Facts

Horse Facts: The birthplace of the Lipizzan breed, the Lipizzaner Stud at Lipizza (Lipica), was founded by Archduke Charles in 1580. It was destroyed, with all 90 of the resident horses, in 1992, during the war in the former Yugoslavia. Lipizzans are born dark and turn white as they age. A few keep their dark coloring for life. Many of the lipizzan bloodlines were lost during World War II, and more were lost in the war in the former Yugoslavia. The six extant (as of 1993) stallion lines are Siglavy (dating back to 1765); Conversano (1767); Pluto (1772); Maestoso (1773); Favory (1779); and Neapolitano (1790). A Lipizzan stallion given to the U.S. Government by Austria in 1964 was used by the Old Guard’s Caisson Platoon, the “White Horse Team,” based at Ft. Meyer, Virginia. They were given ten American-bred Lipizzans in 1981.
