The Andalusian Horse or Purebred Spanish Horse - PRE (Pura Raza Espanola) became a recognized breed in the 15th century when the King of Spain commissioned His army to develop the breed exclusively for the Spanish.

Since its beginning the Andalusian has been prized by Nobility for its strength and bravery as a horse of war and was restricted from export from Spain until around the 1960s.
