Saint Galmier Hippodrome (Joseph Desjoyaux)

Saint Galmier Hippodrome (Joseph Desjoyaux) is a horse-racing track in Saint-Galmier, France. It opened in 1899 at 52 Rte de Cuzie.

History

In 1899, Mr. Joseph Desjoyaux made his property “la Colombinière” available to the Société Hippique Baldomérienne to create the Société Hippique de Saint-Galmier. In 1936, it was given a new platform, then the establishment of the Fédération des courses du Center-Est in 1954. Then the installation of photography arrived in 1959. In the 1970s, it acquired land, which enabled it to improve its gallop track and layout a pozzolana trotting track. In 1989, the track lighting was redone to allow the races to run smoothly at night, a panoramic room and a second restaurant were created.

It hosts national racing meetings every year. Its notoriety today largely exceeds the borders of the Federation of the races of the Center-Est. It is located at Hippodrome Joseph Desjoyaux – 42330 in the town of Saint-Galmier, in the Loire, in the Rhône-Alpes region, 25 km from Saint-Etienne.
