Rembrandt's saddle given to Aachen museum

Rembrandt, who won individual and team gold medals at the 1988 and 1992 Olympic Games, was also World and European champion and retired in 1996.

Uphoff-Selke travelled to Aachen to give the saddle to the museum this week.

"It is a saddle with a long history - and I cannot imagine a better place for it than the CHIO-museum," she said.

The saddle is a pleasing addition to the museum. "Truly there are only very few sportswomen and sportsmen like Nicole," CHIO Aachen director Frank Kemperman said.
