He was born as Johann Mendel in a peasant family of mixed German-Slavic origin in 1822 to Anton and Rosina Mendel. He grew up in relatively modest circumstances and had to support himself from a young age. After completing six years of grammar school in Troppau (now Opava) in 1840, Mendel enrolled in the philosophy classes at the University of Olmütz (now Olomouc) the following year.
However, due to financial difficulties in his family, Mendel decided to become a monk and joined the Augustinian monastery of St.
Thomas in Brunn (now Brno) in October 1843. He changed his name to Gregor and found support and financial assistance for his continued education in the monastery. Mendel was ordained as a priest in 1847 and also studied at the Brunn Theological School for four years.
