Adolf Hitler did not personally set fire to the Reichstag. The fire was allegedly set by a Dutch communist named Marinus van der Lubbe. However, Hitler and the Nazis used the fire as a pretext to crack down on political opponents and consolidate power. They used the incident to pass the Enabling Act, which granted Hitler dictatorial powers.
