A visit to the Haras Nationale du Pin (The National Horse Stud of Pin)

The Haras National Du Pin was established on the orders of King Louis XIV and completed in 1730 as a Royal Stud Farm.  During the summer months there is a regular display of horses which are held every Thursday.  On other days it is open for tours of the Stables.  The following are photos I took of the display we attended.
