Haras de Ligny
Established in 1998 by renowned equestrian Nelson Pessoa, our premier horse stable was conceived with a vision to cultivate champions and elevate the sport of showjumping to new heights.
Designed to be one of Europe’s leading facilities for top-tier training, it quickly became a revered destination for riders seeking to excel on the international stage. Nelson Pessoa, a legend in his own right, handpicked this location as his very own training grounds, where he imparted his wealth of knowledge and expertise to some of today’s most successful riders in the showjumping scene.
A Legacy of Excellence
A Testament to Timeless Elegance
In a testament to its commitment to excellence, the property underwent a comprehensive renovation between 2012 and 2014, overseen by a team of esteemed Italian architects and artisans.
Every aspect of the facility was meticulously redesigned and upgraded, blending modern amenities with timeless elegance. From the architectural nuances to the smallest details of craftsmanship, no expense was spared in ensuring that our stable remains at the forefront of equine excellence.
Modernized Infrastructure
During the renovation process, significant investments were made to modernize the infrastructure of the stable. State-of-the-art facilities were integrated seamlessly into the existing structure, enhancing functionality and efficiency while preserving the charm and character of the original design.
From updated climate control systems to advanced footing in the riding arenas, every enhancement was strategically implemented to optimize the training environment for both horses and riders.
A Sanctuary of Serenity
Nestled amidst tranquil countryside, our stable serves as a sanctuary of serenity for both horses and humans alike.
The lush surroundings provide a peaceful backdrop for training sessions and leisurely rides, fostering a deep connection between horse and rider.
Beyond the physical facilities, our stable embodies a culture of camaraderie and mutual respect, where riders of all levels come together to share their passion for the equestrian sport.
Continuing the Legacy
As stewards of this esteemed legacy, we remain committed to upholding the standards of excellence set forth by Nelson Pessoa himself.
Through ongoing investment in our facilities and unwavering dedication to the welfare of our equine partners, we strive to nurture the next generation of champions and preserve the rich tradition of equestrian excellence for years to come.
