Anglo-Arabian thoroughbred in Germany

After difficult negotiations, a Swabian industrialist was allowed to bring home two Anglo-Arabian horses from his vacation in France. These type of breed is very rare in Germany. It was the first time that a German rider could bring Anglo-Arabian horses from Bayonne, Pau, to Germany after the Second World War. The picture shows the two valuable horses with their carer Mister Hölzel (archive picture form 19 August 1963).
