Equestrian, a harmonious blend of horsemanship and athletic prowess, has been a distinguished presence in the Olympic Games since 1900. The sport encompasses three primary disciplines: dressage, show jumping, and eventing.

Historically, nations like Germany, the United States, and Sweden have excelled in the Olympic Equestrian, producing accomplished riders who demonstrate exceptional skill and partnership with their equine counterparts. Riders such as Isabell Werth from Germany, Reiner Klimke from Germany, and Anky van Grunsven from the Netherlands have contributed significantly to the sport's rich legacy.

Isabell Werth stands as one of the most decorated Equestrians in Olympic history. Her achievements in dressage, including multiple gold medals, underscore her mastery of the discipline and her enduring impact on the sport.

The equestrian events slated for the Paris 2024 Olympics will unfold from July 27 to August 6 at the iconic Palace of Versailles. The competition will showcase the talents of 200 riders participating in individual and team competitions across three disciplines: dressage, eventing, and jumping.

In a nod to history and excellence, Olympic 2024 has chosen the Palace of Versailles as the backdrop for these remarkable events. An extraordinary outdoor arena, surrounded by grandstands, will grace the Etoile Royale esplanade to the west of the Grand Canal, nestled within the heart of the Palace's enchanting gardens. This arena will serve as the stage for dressage, eventing disciplines (dressage test and jumping), as well as jumping and dressage competitions, both Olympic and Paralympic.

Adding to the spectacle, the individual and team eventing cross-country section will unfold alongside the majestic Grand Canal. Additionally, the Château de Versailles will host the five modern pentathlon events, further enhancing the historical allure of the Paris 2024 Olympic equestrian competitions.
