...who is Karli?

His favorite food is carrots and Printen (famous Aachen biscuits); his film hero is Black Beauty. But yet the equestrian sport is his true passion. So for “Karli” – who is 2.30 meters tall and has clattering hooves – it is a special honour to be the mascot of the CHIO Aachen, and with that to be responsible for ensuring a good atmosphere. His colourful mane and tail make his happy appearance complete. The cuddly horse’s name of course refers to the Emperor Charlemagne, and just like his famous namesake, Karli already belongs to Aachen, and one cannot imagine the city without him any more. During the CHIO Aachen the visitors and locals have already become fond of jolly Karli.

Those who want to have Karli with them all the time and not only during his official appearances and during the CHIO can order his small toy relatives. The cuddly horses are available in the fanshop.
