We are thrilled to share that Portuguese Equestrian Art has been recognized by UNESCO as part of the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity! 🐴
This recognition highlights the deep cultural and historical importance of our Lusitano horses, traditional riding techniques, and the enduring bond between rider and horse. From classical horsemanship at the Portuguese School of Equestrian Art to cherished events like the Golegã Fair, this legacy is a testament to centuries of dedication and passion.
At Escola de Equitação de Alcainça, we are honored to contribute to preserving this heritage and sharing its beauty with equestrian enthusiasts worldwide.
Let’s celebrate this achievement and continue to uphold the traditions that make Portugal so unique! 🇵🇹

Once upon a time…😍
…in the nearby pastures, Ole, a young stallion embarked on an adventure one moonlit night ✨. With a daring leap, he jumped the fence to be with Xara, our lovely mare. Their lovestory 💕brought us the birth of Sultão, a spirited colt🐴.
Now, at two years old, Sultão jons a new herd, ready to grow into a magnificent riding horse under the attentive care of his proud new owners.
