Admiral Karl Donitz of the German Navy surrendered the Third Reich. It would have fallen on Hermann Goering, but Hitler was outraged when he learned that Goering had already surrendered himself to the Allies.

Hitler probably expected Donitz to fight to the end, but after Hitler's suicide Donitz immediately went about the task of surrender.

Who was Hitler's successor?

Adolf Hitler's successor was Grossadmiral Karl Donitz. Himmler, Goebbels and most of Hitler's inner circle had committed suicide to escape capture by the Soviets. Karl Donitz was actively in charge of the Reichsmarine and was the direct leader of the "wolf packs" a group of U-Boats ordered to sink any supply ships going to the Allies.


After the war admiral donitz head of German navy was charged with war crimes because of the u boats was he guilty?

guilt depends on who you ask................... This contributor believes that Donitz was charged with war crimes primarily because he was Chancellor of Germany at the time of the surrender. Hitler was not captured alive, Hess defected to Great Britain in 1941, and Hitler dismissed Goering before committing suicide, so it fell upon Donitz to surrender the Third Reich. Donitz was saved from the hangman's noose by a document introduced by his attorney, and signed by US Admiral Chester Nimitz, which permitted US submarine attack without warning on Japanese merchant shipping. Donitz was still found guilty, but he received the lightest sentence and was released after ten years. As in all theaters of the war, there were atrocities on both sides in the Atlantic, but the Kreigsmarine U-boats mostly fought with honor and according to the rules of war.

Hitler's original planned successor was Hermann Goering, leader of the Luftwaffe (German Air Force). But after a spat on April 28th, two days before Hitler shot himself, Goering was removed as successor and Karl Donitz was substituted. This was probably a poor decision on Hitler's part - Donitz capitulated with the Allies just 9 days later.
