Horses. Our daughters are crazy about them. So, when I learned that the famous stud farm Marbach (Haupt- und Landgestüt Marbach) is not located in Marbach am Neckar (where for years I assumed it to be) but instead is only half an hour by car away from our home - well, we just picked the next sunny sunday to drive there. The farmyard itself is a marvelous historic compound, built in the 19th century, neatly restored, really worth a visit and, of course, rife with - horses.
