The team dressage in equestrian at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin was held on the May Field on 12–13 August.[1] The host German team won the gold medal. France won silver and Sweden took bronze.

Competition format[edit]

The team and individual dressage competitions used the same format: a series of moves was performed from memory by each rider within 17 minutes, losing half a point for every second over the time limit.[2] There were 40 individual movements in each test.[3] For each movement, each judge gave a score from 0 to 10; this score was multiplied by the movement's coefficient.[4]
