Collections of Museum of the Horse
The Museum of the Horse website is based on a private collection of equine related artifacts. This collection hopes to stimulate interest in equine culture and to one day find a home in the United Kingdom. If you have an unusual equine artifact and would like to ‘loan’ it to the museum, please do contact us.
The horse has been with us for thousands of years. It has helped us fight our wars, carry our food, feed us, clothe us and die for us. The horse has been revered and idolized. The horse is embedded deep into the culture of many peoples. These cultures are rich in myth, magic, storytelling, music and song.
The Museum of the Horse intends to record, research, and display (at the moment virtually) artefacts that we believe help to tell this story of the horse in all its diversity.
