Arnold Schwarzenegger left a legacy behind with his unparalleled success. He succeeded in whichever field he went to, but the journey was not easy. Arnie belonged to a small town in Germany called Thal and grew up in a humble household with a strict father and almost no money. He saw the ravages of World War II and what it did to his parents. However, Arnold took it to heart and learned to be useful in every situation. He came to the USA to establish himself as a bodybuilding champion and won the Olympiad seven times. He even took over Hollywood and politics.

Arnold also gained the title of father to five children. Joseph Baena is his youngest son, and the 76-year-old knows that he is a spitting image of his father. Just like every other child wants to see where their parents grew up, Joseph decided to walk down the past and go to Thal.

The former Mr. Universe lived in a tiny home in Austria, and today that home is a place where everyone wants to visit. On display at the museum are his childhood bed, a motorbike from Terminator movies, some dumbbells of artists, and a desk he used as the governor of California.

“Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Birth House Museum,” reads the plaque, and Joseph was standing near his father?s home in his latest Instagram story. He captioned it, ?Amazing day in Thal.?
