Fundacion Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre

The Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art Foundation, in Jerez de la Frontera, is famous all over the world for its show called "How the Andalusian Horses Dance", a unique exhibition of horsemanship which both exhibits and summarises the work which the institution has carried out since its establishment. Although the show "How the Andalusian Horses Dance" may be considered the highest attainment of the School's work, there are other aspects which are regarded as equally, or even more important, for the Institution. Among these, we would like to highlight its role as a social and cultural vehicle for our equestrian heritage, the selection and promotion of horses, the training of Haute Ecole riders, the preservation and promotion of Classical and Country Dressage (Doma Vaquera), maintaining the prestige of our horsemanship, the breed of our Spanish horses, our traditions and culture. Furthermore, the show enables the Royal School to play host for the Province of Cadiz and to act as ambassadors abroad on annual tours to various foreign countries. In addition to the show, you might enjoy a visit to our training facilities as well as the Museum of Equestrian Art and the Carriage Museum.

This museum is housed in a beautiful old home, and is worth visiting just to see the building. The displays are well organized and informative. Gives a quick overview of the Jerez region and the growth of the city. Highly recommended.

MUSEO DEL TITERE - (Museum of the puppet)

Reviewed By CnMBath - Bath, United Kingdom

If you love puppets you'll love this museum. Unfortunately it's all in Spanish, but the quality and beauty of the puppets almost doesn't need any explanation. The museum is open all day and is free, so if you want a relaxing hour wandering amongst puppets in the cool this is the place for you.

Centro de interpretacion del vino y la sal

Reviewed By Thewanderingwinos - Brighton, United Kingdom

Pleasantly surprised to find this modern wine and salt museum free. Disappointed ton find all the signage inside was in Spanish but as I was going around I kept seeing numbers on the wall next to exhibits so I went back to reception to ask what this was. Then she tells me that there are audio guides in different languages available if I would like one?! I don’t understand why she didn’t immediately give us these when we arrived, as they really enable you to fully understand the exhibits. We only had about an hour to look around here so concentrated on the salt section which was fascinating. We will definitely come back again and do the wine section. They also have a little shop here too selling wine and salt so we bought some local sea salt here too.
