Schwarzenegger's Austrian Origins

In a little Austrian village called Thal, just outside of Graz, is Arnold Schwarzenegger's childhood home. Today, it is the Arnold Schwarzenegger Museum and contains original possessions and movie memorabilia about his life. It's fascinating to see his little childhood bed, books and photographs from when he was young and how his idea of body building came about. The museum has original clothing and props from Schwarzenegger's movies and his desk and other items when he was Governor of California. It even has a video of him explaining his life and the museum but it is spoken in Austrian.
