Experience Vienna's equestrian tradition at the Spanish Riding School, home of the Lipizzaner stallions. Enter the Baroque riding hall to learn the school's classical dressage heritage through a tour, training session or performance.

📖

Full description

The Spanish Riding School has trained Lipizzaner stallions in the classical art of dressage since 1735, and its Baroque riding hall in the Innere Stadt is the setting for tours, morning training sessions and formal performances. A guided tour explains the school's traditions and the training of the horses, and reviewers single out knowledgeable guides.

Opinions on the performances are more mixed, with some visitors expecting a higher spectacle than they saw, so a tour or morning training can be the better-value way in. Booking is advised, as access runs on set times.

Reviews

We had planned sinds long, but really disappointed with the show. Suggestion: don't buy the ticket for gallery 2, only from few seats you have a good view, otherwise from most of the seats very bad view. Its not for old people or having knee problems, lots of round stairs. First 10-15 minutes, horses are just making…
