Black Forest

Breed Information
The Black Forest Horse (German: Schwarzwälder Kaltblut) is an endangered German breed of light draft horse from the Black Forest of southern Germany.

Horse breeding in the Black Forest – in what is now Baden-Württemberg – is documented from the early fifteenth century in the records of the Abbey of Saint Peter in the Black Forest. A type of heavy horse, the Wälderpferd, was used for forestry and farm work; it is conjectured that the Black Forest Horse derives from it.

The Black Forest Horse was originally bred for work in agriculture and forestry; it is now used in harness and, more and more often, as a riding horse.
