About the Hanoverian Breed
.The Hanoverian breed, as it is known today,
is a comparatively modern production. It owes its origin to
the influence of our own Hanoverian kings, who, from the time
of George I down to 1837, took a great interest in the horse
of their native Hanover, and sent many English Thoroughbreds
to cross with the existing German breeds.
These breeds were sprung from the German Great Horse of the
Middle Ages, which was a descendant of the animals that carried
the Frankish horsemen when, under Charles Martel, they met and
defeated the Saracens at the Battle of Poitiers in 732, one
of the decisive battles of the world. The descendant of these
animals may be traced from the Eastern and Southern European
breeds of pre-Christian times, mixed with the horses of a German
tribe, who settled on the left bank of the Rhine about A.D.100
and who ‘were distinguished from all other German tribes
by their love of horses and their finely organised cavalry.’
From the time of the Franks, the German horse developed and
became the great war horse of European armoured chivalry. The
Flanders, Cleves and so on were all varieties of the same type.
With the advent of gunpowder and the disappearance of armour
the type had to be modified again, and German breeders developed
the 17th and 18th century light and heavy cavalry horse, falling
into three main groups – Hanoverian, Mecklenburg and Danish.
This old Hanoverian breed was then, as we have seen, interbred
with the English horses sent over by the Hanoverian Georges,
and had finally disappeared by about the middle of the 18th
century, to be replaced by the modern Hanoverian, a close and
direct descendant of the famous fathers of the English Thoroughbred,
the Darley and Godolphin Arabians and the Byerley Turk.
There are few breeds of horses on the Continent better known
than the Hanoverian.
