With a hint of Spring in the air, and the Baden-Württemberg carnival just around the corner, it's time to visit the horses on the Swabian Alb – with daily studfarm tours at 1:30 and 3:00 p.m.

Visitors will be treated to the history and tasks of the oldest State Stud in Germany and, above all, insights into the workings of the stables and training facilities.  From time to time there will also be an opportunity to directly meet individual Marbach horse personalities. The first foal of the year has already seen the light of day and can spend some time outside if the weather is right.

The meeting point for tours is at the mare fountain in the inner courtyard of the Marbach stud farm, and registration is not required. The Marbach souvenir shop with gifts, handmade products, and regional offerings is open daily from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Tour prices: €6 adults; €3 children, and members of the 'Julmonds Marbach' children's club receive a €0.50 discount.

TV bonus – an online stallion presentation will be broadcast on Sunday, February 26 at 6:00 p.m. on www.ClipMyHorse.TV or the stud farm's YouTube channel.
