In 1934

He was named Chancellor in January 1933. When President Paul von Hindenburg died in summer 1934, Hitler also assumed the powers of the presidency and created a new position, the "Führer und Reichskanzler" ("Leader and National Chancellor"). There was no further President until Hitler's death in May 1945- Hitler's will made Admiral Dönitz the new President. That would last only a few days, until Dönitz surrendered, ending World War 2 in Europe.
