Wie hat das früher mit dem Pferde wechseln funktioniert?
Es gab ja diese Stationen oder Gasthöfe, wo man auf langen Fahrten oder Ritten die Pferde wechseln konnte. Hatten die alle gar keine festen Besitzer und wurden ständig hin und hergetauscht? Oder wie darf man sich das vorstellen?
The princes of Thurn and Taxis and their ancestors had founded one of the first companies, with post stations. Therefore, the term “Taxi” for the transport of persons still comes today. They had then set up their stations everywhere with hosting, possibly also accommodation of the guests. Originally these were only ridden postmen, later the postal carriages and also the passengers were added. The horses were also exchanged there.
You mean the postal carriages? The horses all belonged to the post or to the count or landlord, even the cattle that had a farmer belonged to the landlord. They belonged almost everything. Therefore the horses could also be exchanged.
At A, one took a rested horse and rode to B. As soon as the horse was rested, the next of B went back to A.
The companies of horse-drawn carriages had several stretches on the route, in so-called post stations. When the carriage came, the tired peda were exchanged for the fresh.
Earlier I would say they had owners but not firm.
They probably knew each other.
I don’t know that exactly (has not been taken care of in history).
I hope I could help

The horses all belonged to the landlord. The Horses of the Kavelerie also belonged not to the single soldiers, but to the king or empire, the individual landlords had to surrender their horse or breed the horses for the kingdom.
