Spanish Norman Horse

Intro

The Spanish Norman horse is a very rare breed and crosses the blood of Andalusian animals of Spain with that of the Percheron of France.

Origins

This breed was developed in an attempt to re-create the mighty war horses of Europe in size and characteristics. The Spanish-Norman Horse Registry was established in 1991 to record and preserve this unique animal that shares the noble attitude of Andalusians and the robust size & power of the Percheron.
