Epicenter of the equestrian military sports and great formation school. It is composed of a hundred of men and women and 200 horses.
It welcomes young soldiers who wish to have a career in the horse-riding field and distinguishes itself in the high level contests.

As the first step in a comprehensive renovation, the Sénarmont riding arena has regained its external splendour. This historic building has the particularity and richness to still have the same function as in the 19th century: an equestrian working area. The interior of the riding arena should also return to its former glory by 2022. Indeed, an interior renovation project in which the reconstruction of a stand opposite to the existing one would be integrated would allow the original design of the merry-go-round to be restored.

These visits will be available again from June 2020.
