Pferderennbahn Gotha-Boxberg, Horse racing venue in Gotha, Germany.

The Pferderennbahn Gotha-Boxberg features an English-style wooden grandstand and spans across 80 hectares of land at the southwestern edge of Gotha.

The facility originated in 1842 as a military drill ground before evolving into a dedicated horse racing track, officially opening in 1878.

Under the patronage of the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, the Central German Racing Association established this venue to promote regional horse breeding.

The facility maintains stables, paddocks, an indoor riding hall, and extensive training grounds for both recreational and professional equestrian activities.

In 1912, the venue hosted an extraordinary aerial tournament featuring the LZ 11 Viktoria-Luise airship alongside regular racing events.
