Holsteiner Foal Summer in the Starting Blocks: The 2026 Catalog Is Here

The foals of the 2026 crop will take center stage in the breeding community in the coming weeks. Holsteiner breeders will present their foals at the upcoming registration and grading events. In the European breeding district and in Schleswig-Holstein, the season kicks off as early as June. Please note the changes to the schedules!


The foal catalog is now available online and can also be obtained as a print edition from the Holsteiner Verband in Elmshorn and at the registration sites.
