Horses have always been important in the history of the Castle. For their convenience, the riding hall was built, for their comfort, the stable was heated with warm air, due to respect for them, the cemetery was marked out on the area of the park, where gravestones were placed to commemorate them. At the beginning of the 20th century, the sports stable of Kliczków Castle was triumphing at the racetracks all over the world and Juno, a mare, was the champion of races in Paris, Berlin and New York.
