Hindenburg was President until August 1933 when he died of lung cancer and Hitler was able to take the position of Fuhrer. Before Hindenburg’s death, Hitler was Chancellor, not president. He was Chancellor from January 1933, when Hindenburg appointed him Chancellor. Hitler was never President, unless you count Fuhrer role as president.
