Comments

The Carthusian Horse is not a distinct breed of horse, but an offspring of the Pure Spanish horse and is considered to be the purest breed in existence, with one of the oldest stud books in the world. The Carthusian lineage has its origins in the Jerez monastery of La Cartuja, which from 1484 and for at least three and a half centuries became the epicentre of the breeding of an elite of Andalusian horses and home to one of the most famous and appreciated studs in the world.
