Tour of the National Stud Farm

The purpose of the national stud farm is to administer the breeding of horses from production to use and as such :
• to ensure gene pool preservation and enhancement
• to exercise, in conjunction with the Ministry of Finance, authority over horse-racing and betting
• to contribute to the development
of horsemanship.

The creation of the National Stud Farm of Uzès was decided in 1972 for the Languedoc-Roussillon, Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur and Corsica regions. The facilities are modern and include two large-sized riding stables, two outdoor schools for the studs, an arena and offices. The Stud Farm can be toured every afternoon from 2PM to 5PM (except Sundays) from March 15th to July 1st (breeding season).

Guided tours on horseback are organized from June to September on tuesday and thursday . These tours are organized year round with reservations for groups.
