While it is not that surprising that a wealthy man would choose to live in a huge house, have you actually seen the house of Christoph Blocher? He Is not only known as the Swiss politician, Christoph Blocher is also known as the former member of the council and an industrialist. He was born on October 11, 1940, in a rather poor family.
His father was a pastor, and Christoph Blocher was the seventh child of their eleven children, which can paint quite a picture. While he was growing up, him and his brothers used to help his dad at his work, while the sisters helped their mom. When he was of age, Christoph Blocher decided to serve the military, and he was especially interested in being the Colonel and the Commander of the Aerial Defense Regiment.
After he earned the certificate at his school of agriculture (Wülflingen), Christoph Blocher decided to start studying independently in 1961 for the Swiss Matura. It did not take him long to pass all of the necessary exams for the Swiss Matura, as he even decided to add an extra exam for Latin, just to be able to pursue legal studies. He was successful at that as well, as he was able to study law in Paris and Montpellier, at the University of Zurich.
Even as he was leading a simple life of a student, Christoph Blocher could not resist his passion for business, which is when he co-founded the Student’s Ring. In 1968, that was used to oppose the protest and correct the ways of the politics. While Christoph Blocher might seem like a man who is driven by business alone, he is also happily married and has children.
He decided to marry a beautiful woman and a formerly primary teacher named Silvia Blocher, who was born in 1945. They now live in Herrliberg and they have four children; three daughters, Magdalena, Miriam and Rahel, and a son Markus. From the whole family of eleven children, somehow only Christoph Blocher was able to rise to fame that high and get his riches in order.
He currently lives at a huge house that is known as the ‘Villa’ of the neighborhood. Some of you might think that that is a bit too much for describing just a house, but once you actually see it, you will be stunned. His house might only have two floors, but space, in general, is huge, not to mention that he has a big pool inside the house and a huge yard.
From Google Maps you can clearly see that he has his own Helicopter place because traveling with a simple car might be a bit too mainstream for a well-known politician. On the side, you can clearly see the flag of Switzerland, and a nice yard that somehow represents a small park. It is quite obvious that Christoph Blocher is using all of his riches in the best ways!
