Origins
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.
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 & preserve this unique animal that shares the noble attitude of the Andalusian and the robust size & power of the Percheron.
