History-And-Development History and Development The oldest history The Landscape offers more than 500 years of experience of how the people who bred horses in individual historical periods considered the sustainable use of landscape, and of natural resources and their cultivation. The terrain, soil, climate, water and vegetation were used and also cultivated to the extent the then farming customs and degree of knowledge allowed for breeding horses for an important European Imperial Court. The landscape still bears the authentic traces of this development since the oldest days. In the same way the horse breeding and training know-how that became the main source of income for local population was developing. Hand in hand with this development these people were also taking care of the landscape. With the time the “mere” farming cultivation of natural countryside turned into the work of architecture while the art plan did not overrule the farming purpose. The aesthetics were always considered the natural quality of work. Since horses and particularly coach and carriage horses owned by the Emperor evoke noble feelings in men, the Landscape is naturally also refined. Numerous archive and historical documents bear evidence of centuries’ long continuous and rich development of architectural heritage in the Landscape. The buildings that were raised, pulled down and refurbished there in the course of times complement the landscape and they are only a part of its memory and current appearance. The history of horse breeding in Kladruby is probably as old as the history of the local settlement. The Elbe river alluvial plain, the location of the Landscape, had been settled since medieval times40, later than the neighbouring fertile flatlands further away from the river. The meandering stream was lined with badly accessible riparian forests with numerous wetlands, marshlands and lakes that were often flooded. The settlement of the areas along the river was the result of the exploitation of the high quality oaks. The first woodcutters obviously brought the horses with them to do the hard work. The cleared areas of the riparian forest were not suitable as arable land because of the high level of ground water and regular floods but they were ideal as pastures for horses. The neighbouring already settled fertile areas served as stable markets for horse breeders. It seems obvious that horse breeding was the main trade of local inhabitants already in pre-Hussite41 times judging by the coat of arms with a horseshoe that belonged to Kladruby nad Labem squires who were also obliged to breed the horses for the court of Přemyslid princes. River Elbe, one of the important European rivers, played the key role in the farming cultivation of Kladruby nad Labem landscape. The woody foundations of the alluvial plain vegetation formed in less wet areas known as hard meads, that is summer and winter oaks(Quercus robur, Quercus petraea) and elms (Ulmus laevis, Ulmus carpinifolia). The wet and regularly flooded soft areas were the home of central European lowlands willows (Salix alba, Salix caprea, probably Salix viminalis and others), black and white poplars (Populus nigra, Populus alba) and also alder trees (Alnus glutinosa). On the first river terrace grew pine forests (Pinus sylvestris) probably with some lime trees (Tilia cordata, Tilia platyphyllos) and maple trees (Acer platanoides, Acer campestre). The name of Kladruby nad Labem village (Kladruby = hew the logs) located on the territory of the Property indicates the first settlers were woodcutters. Kladruby nad Labem is mentioned in the year 1295 as a part of Cistercian Monastery property in Sedlec near Kutná Hora. The neighbouring village of Selmice located also on the territory of the Property is mentioned in the year 1142, the date the monastery was founded. After 1491 Kladruby nad Labem, a part of Pardubice domain, came under the rule of Oberstlandhofmeister (in German, English equivalent of the Master of the Household) Wilhelm II of Pernstein (1435–1521), a member of one of the most important noble families in Kingdom of Bohemia. Wilhelm II of Pernstein began to build in Eastern Bohemia a system of lakes fed by an artificial Opatovický Canal. The system of lakes was later more or less destroyed as a result of the 30 years war and Emperor Josef II’s reforms but Opatovický Canal affected the Landscape as it is until today the source of irrigation water that the canal feeds into the Landscape by Kladrubský náhon (raceway - see below) which is part of the Landscape. The preserved Pernstein urbaries indicate that before 1522 the Pernstein family founded a game park in Kladruby nad Labem to breed the game as well as horses.44 This was the real beginning of history of the Property as purposefully created cultural landscape. The additional entry in the urbaries possibly from the second half of 1520s of 1530s mentions cancellation of Meierhof (German term – administered farmstead with tenants) and the takeover of the land plots by Pernsteins, i.e. extension of the game park at the time of the rule of childless Vojtech of Pernstein (+1534) or possibly his brother John (+1548). At the time of game park extension the Pernsteins built their favourite early renaissance official seat mentioned in preserved correspondence. Terracotta reveal findings45 in the farm yard of Kladruby nad Labem stud farm, the same as those found in Pardubice, date its origin to the 1530s. Horse breeding activities were part of the game park yet there is no information about closer relations between the care for game and for horse breeding. The Pernstein game park in Kladruby belonged among the oldest noble families’ game parks in Bohemia (the oldest ones were royal game parks led by the game park in Prague called Ovenecká). In the north the territory of the park was bordered by a forest, in the south by Elbe River, and inside the park there was an open pasture forest, single trees in grass, pastures. Vratislav II of Pernstein (1530–1582), Bohemian kingdom Chancellor, whose costly life style led to high debts, was forced to sell the Pardubice Estate to the Bohemian Chamber. The Bohemian Chamber bought the Pardubice Estate on March 21st, 1560. The Emperor Maximillian II Habsburg founded a stud farm there in 1563. The reason why the House of Habsburg (they got control over the Lands of the Bohemian Crown in 1526) as well as the Czech Estates were interested in the Pardubice Estate was their systematic effort to establish a base for Prague Habsburg Court. Hence the Chamber was acquiring manors in the fertile river Elbe region (Poděbrady 1492, Brandýs nad Labem, Přerov nad Labem 1547, Kolín 1547 and definitely in 1591). The intrinsic part of the manors was game parks important for representation and the owners’ past time. The Prague court thus got hold of a complex of game parks (New game park Hvězda and Royal Game Park in Prague, game parks in Králův Dvůr u Berouna, Kostelec nad Labem, Brandýs nad Labem and Poděbrady) and other items (Kladruby nad Labem and Kunětická hora). The urbaries of Pardubice manor estate mention in 1563 Kladruby nad Labem: “Farmstead in Kladruby nad Labem game park. Fields belonging to the farmstead are regularly sown. There are two categories of mares bred there – for ploughing, sowing and carting the grain and the herd mares, altogether 30 horses. They keep 40 cows. There are also special pastures for grazing cows and mares. In the garden plants are sown for labourers and fruit grown to be consumed and dried if the harvest is rich.” The inventory from 1561 states 30 mares, 3 breeding stallions, 11 two years old mares, 5 one year old mares, a two years old foul and 5 one year old fouls in the “Large game park” (i.e. Kladruby nad Labem). The description of Pardubice manor estate from 1570–1571 include a section about the Kladruby nad Labem game park: there was a brick and stone manor house and a farmstead to serve the needs of labourers and cattle. The fields were sown with barley (44%), oats (24%), and wheat (28%) and to lesser extent peas (3%). There was also a well organised vegetable garden used by the labourers’ kitchen. The orchard served also as a meadow providing some 80 cartloads of hay. The meadow by the Elbe river called “Zemanství” provided 30 cartloads of hay a year, the meadow called “Za oborou” next to Elbe stretching to Selmice village yielded 150 cartloads of hay a year. Besides deer, hogs and feathered game the game park also served as a breeding ground for mares and horses in general. A large number of deer, pheasants, partridges and black grouses are reported in the game park. By both gates to the game park there were two small lodges whose tenants were obliged to open and close the gates (known as Selmická and Semínská “Vrata”). On 6 March 1579 the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II issued a decree promoting the stud farm to the imperial court stud farm. Soon after this promotion, between 1579 and 1582, the manor house was refurbished and the new stables were built by Italian bricklayers who worked under the supervision of the Imperial Court Architect Ulrico Aostalliss.46 The Kladruby game park land soon became inadequate. In 1584,the stud farm and the game park were enlarged by the plots that belonged to Semín village and Selmice village (after 1588). The documents from 1588 state that “there is a big building in the game park built mostly of bricks with many bedrooms, rooms, basements and closets. Adjacent are two proper vaulted kitchens with larders and various other areas ready for the occasional visits of His Imperial Highness.

    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS.

  • History-Of-Breeding-And-Training-Of-The-Kladruber-Horses
    History of Breeding and Training of the Kladruber Horses The Kladruber horse is the only breed of the original ceremonial horses still bred that is the only draught horse breed in the world originated, bred and trained for drawing carriages of the social elites. Thanks to the Habsburg conservatism and unchanged breeding goal, the Kladruber horse has preserved its original “baroque” appearance from the 18th century to date. It still bears the traits of the original, but now extinct breeds (old Spanish horse and old Italian horse) which were at its beginning and from medieval times until the 18th century influenced the stock in most European countries and colonies and by the end of the 18th century were extinct. Even though there are only limited opportunities for ceremonial carriage horses to be used at (now the most frequent breeds are warmblooded horses for sport) the Kladruber horse breed has been preserved and still serves its original purpose for example at the Danish Royal Court and it is also used for state functions. Horse breeds are divided into primitive (indigenous) and intentionally designed (on the basis of targeted selective breeding) however some breeds oscillate between these two main types. Then the horse breeds are divided according to their purpose such as draught horses which the carriage horses fall into (weight up to 1200 kg), riding horses (up to 800kg) and pack horses (less than 500 kg). A new horse breed came into existence either in a particular area, using the same genetic material and the effect of the external conditions and climate (most of the breeds started in this way) or it came into existence in a single place – at a dedicated stud farm with a clearly defined breeding goal using particular horses of selected breeds imported for this sole purpose and applying the knowledge of selective breeding available at that time as well as the knowledge of local natural conditions and climate.

  • Multiple Pregnancy in Mares
    MENDELNET 2016 MULTIPLE PREGNANCY IN MARES MARIE IMRICHOVA Department of Animal Breeding Mendel University in Brno Zemedelska 1, 613 00 Brno CZECH REPUBLIC [email protected] Abstract: Mare is in terms of reproduction described as uniparous, it means that she has one foal. More embryos, fetuses or foals represents non – physiological phenomenon and as such it brings a lot of complications. In terms of the etiology is discussed as a predisposing factor mare’s breed, the most common is a higher incidence associated with Thoroughbreds. Although in context of multiple pregnancies often mentioned is mare‘s age. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and results of multiple pregnancy in Thoroughbred and Old Kladruber Horse mares. It was found 323 records of multiple pregnancies in Thoroughbred and 48 in Old Kladruber Horse mares and the result of the multiple pregnancy was in Thoroughbreds in 258 cases twin abortion, in 45 cases parturition of 2 dead foals, 15 records of parturition 1 live and 1 dead foal and in 5 cases it was the parturition of 2 live foals. In Old Kladruber Horse twin abortion was recorded 36 times, in 7 cases 2 dead foals and in 5 cases 2 live foals. Key Words: horse, breeding, reproduction, pregnancy, twins INTRODUCTION The reproduction standard in horse breeding is the fundamental informative factor affecting its success and profitability. One of the factors that can decide about the reproduction outcome is also multiple pregnancy. Multiple pregnancy basically may occur naturally either by spontaneous division of embryos, or by fertilization of two oocytes after multiple ovulation.

Traditional and practical By Atjan Hop Everybody who is interested in the back- grounds of the breeding and breeding histo- ry of the Lipizzaner horse breed will sooner or later be faced with the traditional beauti- ful, but repeating naming system. At first sight the names sound elegant, completely suitable with this noble imperial horse breed. But in daily practice the system ap- pears to be confusing, with all those simi- lar names and roman numerals. And what about the different system, that is being used in Hungary and Romania? Let’s try to explain the principals and backgrounds. Atjan Hop & Neapolitano Elvira working on Long Reins In the Renaissance and Baroque time era, the Spanish horse type was the leading type among the European nobility. The court habits of the prominent noble dynasty since the 16th century, the Habsburgs, were taken over by all other nobility in Europe, including the dominant use of the mag- nificent horse breed of the Iberian Peninsula. These proud, elegant and brave horses with their elevated movements really did fit the demands of the European nobility in those times. Those horses were not only directly purchased on the Iberian Peninsula, but also bred in a number of court studfarms throughout the whole of Europe, in order to fulfil the demand directly. The Habsburg dynasty kept their leading role in providing these horses.

Abstract: The aims of this study are the quantitative characterisation of the coat colour in the black variety of the Old Kladruber Horse breed, the estimation of the coat colour genetic parameters, and the determination of the fac- tors that influence coat colour intensity. A total of 252 horses aged 1–24 years were included in the study. The colour parameters were taken using a Konica Minolta spectrophotometer CM-2500d at four different body parts during the summer and winter seasons, resulting in 1748 phenotypic records. The possible effects of sex, season, housing system, age and body part on the spectrophotometric parameters were analysed. The results confirmed that the intensity of the black coat colour can be influenced by a number of factors (sex, season, housing system, and age).

Supplemental Information History of Malopolski Horse Stallions The Malopolski horse was created in southern and south-eastern Poland over the centuries. Pastureland with a continental climate and very fertile soils were a perfect place for breeding horses. The primitive Polish horse living in these areas influenced the development of the breed and made the horse perfectly adapted to the local environment. Among all the warmblood Polish horse breeds, Malopolski horse possesses most of the features inherited from ancestors (e.g. longevity, fertility, excellent feed utilization, resistance to diseases, adverse climatic conditions and endurance during work). The name of the breed was established in 1962. The Malopolski horse studbook was released the following year. Until that time these horses were of “Malopolski type” - defined as a separate type of an extremely valuable horse group associated to the Malopolska region. Not only the geographical localisation influenced forming the breed, but also the political situation of 17th and 18th century Poland contributed to this process.
