Hitler became head of state in 1934 completing his total domination of the German political system. The old German President Paul Hindenburg died in 1934, he was considered Hitlers single barrier to total domination. Paul Hindenburg originally opposed Hitler becoming chancellor and famously said after the general election; "Make that man chancellor, I'll make him postmaster and he can lick stamps with my head on them"

Who was president when Hitler became chancellor in 1933?

In 1933, Germany had BOTH a President (Head of State) and Chancellor (Head of Government). Hitler was the Chancellor, and Paul von Hindenburg was the President. With the death of Hindenburg in 1934, Hitler merged the two positions into one; the Fuhrer.


What was unique about the takeover of Germany by Hitler?

The takeover of Germany by Hitler was one of a kind because it was done legally by Von Hindenburg's appointment of Hitler to Chancellor. Later when President Von Hindenburg died in 1934, his office of President, meaning "head of State" was an election issue. Hitler, in 1934 ran for President and was elected. He then combined the office of Chancellor & President into one office. Chancellor meant head of the government, President meant Head of State. As President, Von Hindenburg could have removed Hitler from office. Failing to see that Hitler took over Germany legally creates false history.
