Lars Petrus Ragnar Kastenman (15 August 1924 – 10 June 2013)[1] was a Swedish equestrian who won an individual gold medal in eventing at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Stockholm.[2]
Kastenman took up horse riding at the age of 17, when he enlisted at K1 in Stockholm. From there, he was transferred to Skövde in 1949. In 1969, his family moved to Borgunda, where he built a championship eventing course. During the 1970s and 1980s, he was the national coach for juniors, young riders and pony riders, and also coach of the Norwegian and the Finnish national teams. At one time, he coached five different teams.[3] In his later years, he lived in a retirement home in Stenstorp, where he died on 10 June 2013 at the age of 88.[3] He was survived by two children, Björn and Mimmi Kastenman.
