The Vorwerk farm in Cappeln, mentioned in documents for the first time in 1310, is one of the most well-known and most beautiful in Oldenburg Münsterland which is located in the heart of Lower Saxony, Germany. The stud farm, which was founded in 1875, was well-known for its stallions such as Macro, Ludenberg, Furioso II, More Magic xx, Zeus, Inschallah AA, Welt As, Rubinstein and Rohdiamant, just to name a few.
The attachment of our family to Gestüt Vorwerk was kept alive for more than 30 years: e.g. Mon Cherie, with whom my mother became the 1979 European Champion and 1980 Olympic winner, was by the Vorwerk stallion More Magic xx. Augustin OLD, who was bred by my mother, won the Burg Pokal and took fifth at the European Championships, is out of a Rohdiamant daughter.
So when we were looking for a place in southern Oldenburg where we could keep all of our broodmares together, you can’t imagine how ecstatic we were when Gudula Vorwerk-Happ and her husband Jochen Happ offered us Gestüt Vorwerk. By selling the stud farm, the couple wanted to make sure that the tradition of this world-famous Gestüt would live on – an obligation we are very pleased to accept.
Our goal is to make sure that Gestüt Vorwerk remains the first address when it comes to breeding and sport in the future as well. Accordingly, in 2010 we organized a first rate international show “Fest der Dressur“ for the first time which will now take place annually in Cappeln.
