    The topic of the paper are the closed Jordan curves \(\Gamma\) in Euclidean spaces which are bi-Lipschitz homogeneous in the sense that there is a constant \(K\) and for all \(x,y\in\Gamma\) a \(K\)-bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism \(f\colon\Gamma\to\Gamma\) with \(f(x)=y\). It is shown that in \({\mathbb{R}}^2\) they are of bounded turning and thus quasicircles and that this is not true in \({\mathbb{R}}^3\). Combined with results of \textit{D. A. Herron} and \textit{V. Mayer} [Ill. J. Math. 43, No. 4, 770-792 (1999; Zbl 0935.30017)] several characterizations of them are given in the planar case.
