Aachen's equestrian championships, held at the town's showground, welcomes some of the world's top show jumping, dressage and carriage-driving talent.
This year's jumping programme, held in the main arena, sees talented riders competing for awards such as the Warsteiner Prize, the Sparkassen-Youngsters-Cup and the coveted Mercedes-Benz Prize Nations' Cup.
Dressage competitions take place in the Deutsche Bank Stadium and feature the Lambertz Prize Nations' Cup, the Lindt Prize and the freestyle finale "Grand Prix Dressage of Aachen". Visitors can also catch carriage driving by heading to the Driving Stadium near Aachen Forest.
