The "Fondation pour le Cheval" offers a peaceful retirement for horses, donkeys and ponies.

Created by Hans Schwarz in 1958, the Foundation for the Horse is a retirement home for horses, ponies and donkeys which it welcomes on four different sites. A popular excursion destination, Le Roselet was the first to open its doors, followed by Le Jeanbrenin, Maison Rouge and Les Murs, the fourth home to open in October 2022. All four sites can be visited freely. Le Roselet and Maison Rouge offer, in addition to a guided tour on request for groups, a playground for children and the possibility to eat.
