Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner at Kongensbro Kro – OLRacingteam Andersen – Denmark
It was early December when I once again visited the legendary Hotel & Restaurant Kongensbro Kro. Nestled in a picturesque setting, this historic inn exudes a unique charm, boasting an incredible 360 years of history. The warm and inviting atmosphere is only matched by the passion and dedication of its third-generation owner, Christian Andersen—a renowned specialist in one loft racing.
Dining at Kongensbro Kro is an experience in itself. If you ever find yourself there, be sure to try the incredible ribeye steak with béarnaise sauce—an absolute must! But beyond the fine cuisine, the inn is also home to a champion in the world of pigeon racing.
After being crowned Denmark’s National Young Bird Champion, Christian took on a new challenge: dominating the world of one loft racing. His strategy? Focus on select prestigious races rather than spreading efforts too thin. This meticulous approach has propelled him to the top in no time.
Success in one loft racing hinges on the optimal upbringing of young birds, ensuring they are prepared to compete against the elite from across Europe and beyond. To give his pigeons the best possible advantage, Christian relies on the Matador Super Breeding Mixtures in his breeding lofts—an essential part of his winning formula.
From all of us at Team Matador, we wish Christian Andersen a spectacular and successful 2025 one loft racing season!
