Herrmann's Royal Lipizzan Stallions at Roseland Cottage

Improve listing Presented by Historic New England

The Herrmann family, breeders and trainers of the famed Lipizzan horses, demonstrates the highest levels of horsemanship in three shows. These stallions are among the last horses capable of executing the "Airs Above the Ground" maneuvers, dramatic leaps and plunges that were developed as aggressive battle maneuvers in the sixteenth century and are now among the most beautiful displays of equine grace and strength. Snacks and souvenirs are available. Please bring seats.
