Vienna Lipizzaners Riding School - Alergies

Weird question I hope not. Want to visit Lipizzaner's Riding School but my husband has unpleasant alergy to horses (even with medications). Is the area confined or more open, it will make a difference.

Make sure they're even there when you're going to be there before you worry too much. They go on tour a lot, especially in the summer.

September they are at the Riding School. Have taken a look at the website the facilities seem wide open but the price of the show for 45min. seems a little high if we have to leave quickly.

If he has an allergy to horses would suggest you give it a wide birth. While you will be sitting above the horses they snort and sweat a lot. It was there that I realized that in addition to dust and cats I was allergic to horses - had to leave and took a while to get my breath back. I am glad that it was the practice session rather than the full performance - i.e. we wasted a lower ticket price. Wild horses would not get me back there
