Julmond (born April 26, 1938 in East Prussia ; † March 23, 1965 in Marbach ) was one of the most important Trakehner breeding stallions of the post-war period.

Julmond was bred by the farmer Mickoleit in Rautengrund in the Tilsit-Ragnit district . His father was Julianus, his mother the mare Pady. He was fox-colored and had a height of 163 cm. In East Prussia he was employed as a stallion in the Georgenburg state stud from 1941 to 1944 .

Towards the end of the Second World War he came to West Germany on the large refugee route , where he first became a stallion in the Warendorf State Stud . At that time he already stood out because of his excellent nature, but his appearance and his offspring did not attract much attention. So he was used in Warendorf from 1948 as a riding and carriage horse. In 1954 he became a private stallion, first for another year in the Warendorf district, then for four years in Baden-Württemberg. The turning point in his career as a sire was in 1961 when he became a sire at the main and state stud in Marbach at an advanced age . There the chestnut stallion played the decisive role in transforming the Württemberg warmblood from an agricultural horse into a sport horse. He was in Marbach until he died of heart failure in 1965 . A memorial was erected there because of his importance for the stud.
