Escola Portuguesa de Arte Equestre

Intimately bound up with the traditions and customs of the 18th century Portuguese court, the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art provides a return to this past on a veritable journey through time at the pace of the elegant and precise “dance” of the thoroughbred Lusitano horses bred by the Coudelaria de Alter stud farm.

Headquartered in the Gardens of the National Palace of Queluz and with regular presentations in the Henrique Calado Riding Ring, on Calçada da Ajuda (Belém), the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art stands out as national heritage and endowed with the objective of promoting the teaching, practice and global dissemination of traditional Portuguese equestrian art, a unique cultural heritage.
