The Nord Cavall is a docile, friendly breed of horse heralding from the northern parts of Iberia. Though an old breed, it only began to grow in popularity worldwide after it's rising appearance in shows. Originally serving as a cart-pulling horse for market, or mounts in times of war, Cavalls are now known for their excellence in areas such as dressage, driving, and leisure riding. Like many other light Iberians, the Nord Cavall is a baroque horse: agile, but strong in body. For centuries, Cavalls have been seen to have cropped manes for various reasons.
After a near extinction of the breed, Nord Cavalls made a comeback thanks to a handful of dutiful conservation groups. In the process they introduced various breeds such as the baroque style Knabstrupper, the Groningen, and a few sport Warmblood breeds. This allowed for a wider variety of coat colors and markings to appear within the Cavalls, while keeping the original baroque traits it was known for.
