15/12/2017 - We paid a visit to Hardy Krüger in Rommerskirchen this year, and we are still impressed with what we saw. We had not expected to see such a high quality collection of pigeons. It was a visit to clearly one of the best pigeon fanciers in Germany.

02/12/2015 - It was at the turn of the new millennium, in the year 2000, that Hardy Krüger rung a pigeon that would go on to become the cornerstone of his loft for years to come.

From England to South Africa, the pigeons of Krüger origin have performed with terrific success.

10/12/2014 - The European racing pigeon scene has seen the evolution of some truly remarkable breeds during the last two decades.

24/04/2014 - The title says it all: unlimited success for the Krüger family. Hardy Krüger and his father have been performing at the highest level for over 20 years. It is fair to say that they have not had one bad season and last year was particularly successful (more on that later).
