The Andalusian is a racy, elegant horse. Actually the breed is called Pura razza espanola, in English pure Spanish breed. In the 15th century, monks began to breed the Andalusians in the south of Spain. With its graceful appearance, it enchanted especially nobles and kings. Therefore, only few would guess that the Andalusian has long been used as a cavalry horse.
