The Austrian Warmblood was developed in Austria, hence its
breed name. Not much is known about the breed, but it has an established
herdbook and came from a cross of the Trakehner, Hanoverian, and Oldenburg. They
can be black, bay, dark chestnut, chestnut, and gray. They are mainly used as
sport or hobby horses, and are known for their pulling power, handling ease,
speed, and adaptability at dressage, jumping, and military. There are a
calculated eight hundred of these horses left in the world.
