Early Life • At school, Schwarzenegger was apparently "in the middle" but stood out for his "cheerful, good-humored and exuberant" character. Money was a problem in the household; Schwarzenegger has recalled that one of the highlights of his youth was when the family bought a refrigerator. • Arnold Schwarzenegger was born in Thal, a small village bordering the Styrian capital Graz, and was named Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger. His parents were the local police chief Gustav Schwarzenegger and his wife, the former Aurelia Jadrny . According to Schwarzenegger, both of his parents were "very strict". He was born into a Roman Catholic family who attended Church every Sunday. His father, Gustav, signed up to be in the Nazi party after the 1938 Anschluss. (At the time of signing up, Austria had not yet been invaded by Germany.) Still, after the war, in 1947, His father loved his eldest son more than Arnold.
