Adolf Hitler committed suicide on April 30, 1945 in his Führerbunker in Berlin. Later, the remains of the dictator were discovered by the Soviet military and taken to Moscow.
But the very fact of Hitler's death is still shrouded in all sorts of secrets and mysteries. There are many theories, in addition to the official version, according to which the remains of Hitler were not genuine, he did not commit suicide or even survived.
26 April. Soviet troops occupied three-quarters of Berlin. Hopeless Hitler is in a two-story bunker at a depth of 8 meters under the courtyard of the imperial office.
Together with him in the bunker are his mistress Eva Braun, Goebbels with his family, chief of the general staff Krebs, secretaries, adjutants, security guards.
According to the testimony of an officer of the General Staff, on this day Hitler presented a terrible picture: he moved with difficulty and clumsily, throwing his upper body forward and dragging his legs ... The Fuhrer could hardly maintain his balance. His left hand did not obey him, and his right hand was constantly trembling ... Hitler's eyes were bloodshot ...
In the evening, one of the best female pilots in Germany, Hanna Reitsch, fanatically devoted to Hitler, arrived in the bunker. She later recalled that the Fuhrer invited her to his place and said: "Hannah, you belong to those who will die with me. Each of us has an ampoule of poison."
He handed the ampoule to Hanna, saying: "I don't want any of us to fall into the hands of the Russians, and I don't want our bodies to go to the Russians. Eva's bodies and mine will be burned."
As Reitsch testified, during the conversation, Hitler presented a terrible picture: almost blindly rushing from wall to wall with paper in trembling hands. "A completely disintegrated person," the pilot stated.
29 April. The marriage of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun took place. The process took place in accordance with the law: a marriage contract was drawn up and a wedding ceremony was performed.
Witnesses, as well as Krebs, Goebbels' wife, Hitler's adjutants, General Burgdorf and Colonel Belov, secretaries and a cook were invited to the wedding celebration. And after a small feast, Hitler retired to draw up a will.
April 30. The Fuhrer's last day has come. After lunch, on Hitler's orders, his personal chauffeur, SS Standartenführer Kempka, delivers canisters with 200 liters of gasoline to the garden of the Imperial Chancellery.
This is the last photograph of Hitler taken on April 30th. On the threshold of the bunker in the courtyard of the Reich Chancellery in Berlin, the Fuhrer was captured by one of the officers of his personal bodyguard.
In the conference room, Hitler and Braun say goodbye to Bormann, Goebbels, Burgdorf, Krebs, Axman, who came here, to the Fuhrer's secretaries Junge and Weichelt.
According to the first version, based on the testimony of Hitler's personal valet - Linge, the Fuhrer and Eva Braun shot themselves at 15.30. There is even a photo of Hitler's body with a bullet mark, the authenticity of which is in question.
When Linge and Bormann entered the room, Hitler was allegedly sitting on a sofa in the corner, a revolver lying on the table in front of him, blood flowing from his right temple. The dead Eva Braun, who was in the other corner, dropped her revolver on the floor.
Another version (accepted by almost all historians) says: Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun were poisoned by potassium cyanide. In addition, before his death, the Fuhrer also poisoned two beloved shepherd dogs.
By order of Bormann, the bodies of the deceased were wrapped in blankets, taken out into the yard, and then doused with gasoline and burned in a shell crater. Since they burned badly, the SS men buried the half-burnt corpses in the ground.
The bodies of Hitler and Brown were discovered by the Red Army soldier Churakov on May 4, but for some reason they lay for 4 whole days without examination: they were taken for examination and identification to one of the Berlin morgues on May 8.
An external examination gave reason to believe that the charred corpses of a man and a woman were the remains of the Fuhrer and his wife. But, as you know, Hitler and Braun had several doubles, so the Soviet military authorities intended to conduct a thorough investigation.
The question of whether the person delivered to the morgue was really Hitler still worries researchers.
According to an eyewitness, the man's corpse was in a wooden box 163 cm long, 55 cm wide and 53 cm high, respectively. A burnt piece of knitted fabric of a yellowish tint, similar to a shirt, was found on the body.
During his lifetime, Hitler repeatedly turned to his dentist, as evidenced by the large number of fillings and gold crowns on the preserved parts of the jaws. They were confiscated and transferred to the SMERSH-3 department of the Shock Army.
On May 11, 1945, the dentist Gaiserman described in detail the anatomical data of Hitler's oral cavity, which coincided with the results of a study conducted on May 8.
There were no visible signs of severe fatal injuries or diseases on the body damaged by fire. But a crushed glass ampoule was found in the oral cavity. The characteristic smell of bitter almonds emanated from the corpse.
The same ampoules were found during the autopsy of another 10 corpses close to Hitler. It was found that death was the result of cyanide poisoning.
On the same day, an autopsy was performed on the corpse of a woman, presumably belonging to Eva Braun. Despite the fact that there was a broken glass ampoule in the mouth and the smell of bitter almonds also emanated from the corpse, traces of a shrapnel wound and 6 small metal fragments were found in the chest.
Military intelligence officers packed the remains in wooden boxes and buried them in the ground near Berlin. However, soon the Chekist headquarters changed its location, and after it the boxes went.
In a new place, they were buried again, and then, at the next move, they were removed from the ground.
She found a permanent home at a military base near the city of Magdeburg. Here, the boxes lay in the ground until 1970, when the territory of the base came under the jurisdiction of the GDR.
On March 13, 1970, the head of the KGB, Yuri Andropov, gave the order to destroy the remains. They were cremated and the ashes scattered from a helicopter into the air.
For history, only the jaws of the dictator and a fragment of his skull with a bullet hole were left.
This material evidence of the death of Adolf Hitler was sent to Moscow and placed in the archives of the KGB.
Rumors that Adolf Hitler was alive appeared almost immediately after his death. The British, French, and Americans doubted the death of the dictator. There was persistent talk about the amazing rescue of the Fuhrer.
It was rumored that he fled from Berlin abroad along the so-called "rat trail". She was a "window" on the border with Switzerland. Through it, high-ranking officials of the Third Reich with forged documents made their way to a neutral country, and from there they were sent to fascist Spain or the countries of Latin America.
Regarding the flight of the dictator to South America, there are even a number of FBI "documents" regarding the investigation of this fact.
However, most historians continue to argue that Hitler had no chance of escaping Berlin.
In response, they put forward a version that Hitler might not have been in the bunker under the Reich Chancellery at all. On this issue, there is a version that all tactical issues were decided by the Fuhrer's double. It was he who was shot on April 30, 1945.
Together with him, Eva Braun was also killed, so that the death of the country's main Nazi would look more natural. Hitler himself, at this time, again sailed away in a submarine towards South America, changing his appearance.
Similar versions are expressed at the present time.
Newspapers wrote about them, publishing the supposedly surviving clothes of the Fuhrer, in which he arrived in Peru or Paraguay.
There were even photos of the surviving Hitler, calmly meeting old age incognito.
But historians say in response that the Fuhrer could not be called a coward. His courage is evidenced by the fact that he volunteered for the front in the First World War and was awarded several iron crosses for courage, and also had wounds received in battle.
After that, it is simply illogical to say that at the most difficult moment for the nation, the Führer cowardly runs, leaving a double in his place, is simply illogical.
In favor of the fact that Hitler was in the bunker is also the fact that only after his death did the Germans put forward a proposal for a truce. Having been refused, Goebbels committed suicide, poisoning his entire family. Bormann did the same a few hours later.
In 2009, Vasily Khristoforov, head of the Registration and Archival Funds Department of the FSB of Russia, said that in 1946 a special commission carried out additional excavations at the site of the discovery of the corpses of Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun. At the same time, "the left parietal part of the skull with an exit bullet hole" was found.
In 1948, the "finds" from the Fuhrer's bunker (several burnt objects, as well as fragments of jaws and teeth, which were used to identify the corpses of Hitler, Eva Braun and the Goebbels) were sent to Moscow, to the investigative department of the 2nd Main Directorate of the MGB of the USSR.
Since 1954, by order of the Chairman of the KGB under the Council of Ministers of the USSR Serov, all these items and materials were stored in a special order in a special room of the departmental archive.
Since 2009, Hitler's jaws have been kept in the FSB archive, and skull fragments in the State Archives.
However, a DNA analysis conducted in 2009 by employees of an American university from the city of Hartford (Connecticut) destroyed the entire evidence base regarding the death of the dictator. According to their version, the badly damaged skull bone did not belong to Adolf Hitler at all. She didn't belong to a man at all. It was a fragment of a woman's skull. Moreover, the woman at the time of her death was in the prime of life - 35-40 years old.
This statement caused a big scandal. The FSB officers completely refused to recognize its authenticity. And later they also expressed a version about the mistake of the Soviet soldiers who collected the remains.
It seems that the point in this matter will never be put. Although, at present, most often the "survivor" Hitler and his doubles become heroes of memes, rather than major scientific disputes.
"Attention attention,
Germany speaking!
Tonight under the bridge
They caught Hitler with a tail.
Hitler does not give up
And fights with his tail -
With pitchforks, with shovels,
With rotten guns!
I recently wrote a joking post about Hitler being Jewish. There was a document! old post -
There is only a strange fact - Aloizych's direct relatives now live in Israel. Not in some Cape Verde or Argentina. Understand. By chance this…
There is a well-established legend that Aloizych did not commit suicide in the bunker, but fled to South America. Here's an example:
In 1945, Hitler fled Germany for South America. He lived first in Argentina, then in Paraguay, until he settled in a Brazilian town near the border with Bolivia. Hitler lived incognito. For conspiracy, a black woman became his companion. The Fuhrer died of old age in 1984. This version was presented in her book "Hitler in Brazil - His Life and Death" by the writer Simoni Rene Guerreiro Diaz, accompanying the text with photographic evidence.
Hitler, having escaped from Berlin, settled in the sparsely populated Brazilian state of Mato Grosso, the writer claims. It was this sparsely populated state that the defeated Fuhrer chose because he hoped to find a buried treasure somewhere in those places. The treasure map was given to Hitler by his allies in the Vatican, says Simonyi Diaz.
Even in her youth, as a student of journalism, Diaz suggested that there was a connection between the alleged time of Hitler's arrival in Brazil and the fact that then the Vatican offered to cede ownership of the "treasures" of the Jesuits, who were buried just near the house where the ex-Führer settled .
The place where "Hitler" lived for almost 40 years was the town of Nossa Señora do Livramento, thirty miles from the state capital of Cuiaba. Hitler took the name Azholf Leipzig and lived under it to the age of 95. Diaz notes that it was in Leipzig that the Fuhrer's favorite composer, Johann Sebastian Bach, was born. To ensure incognito, Hitler began to live with a local black woman named Kutinga.

But a sensation whistled on the Western Internet a few years ago - Hitler was taken out by the Soviet KGB, and then Adolf Hitler died and was buried. At the Jewish cemetery in Bucharest. And the photo is attached:
Only the date of death there was very strange - October 26, 1892. So it's not him! Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the Internet forgot about this grave.
But recently the Romanians have made a small fuss!
The Romanian portal claims that there was no family named Hittler in Bucharest, and that Adolf Hittler and his family immigrated from the former Austrian province of Bukovina.
But it turns out that the Hitlers are still a Jewish surname - non-Jews were not buried at the Jewish cemetery in Romania! So family!
American Jews, commenting on the attitude of the German dictator towards the Semitic race, expressed the opinion that Hitler must be a Jew, because in the course of history the greatest oppressors of the Israelis have always been renegades. One of their most famous, for example, was the Grand Inquisitor Torrequemada who was a baptized Jew.
In short, it is possible that there is some Semitic blood in the veins of the German Chancellor. However, it makes absolutely no difference.

Both of Adolf Hitler's parents came from the rural area of Waldviertel in Austria, near the Czech border. Hitler's father, Alois, was born on June 7, 1837, to an unmarried 42-year-old Maria Anna Schicklgruber. Alois' father (Adolf Hitler's grandfather) is unknown. It was rumored that he was the son of a wealthy Jew, Frankenberger, for whom Maria Anna worked as a servant-cook. When Alois was almost five years old, a certain Johann Georg Hiedler married Maria Schicklgruber. The surname Hiedler (in ancient metrics was also written as Hüttler) sounded unusual for an Austrian and resembled a Slavic one. Five years later, Maria, Adolf Hitler's grandmother, died. Stepfather Johann Georg abandoned his stepson, and Alois was raised by his stepfather's brother, Johann Nepomuk Hidler, who had no sons. At the age of 13, Alois ran away from home and first got a job as an apprentice shoemaker in Vienna, and after 5 years - in the border guard. He quickly moved up in the ranks and soon became a senior customs inspector in the town of Braunau.
Alois Hitler, father of Adolf Hitler
In the spring of 1876, Nepomuk, who wanted to have a son, even if it was not his own, adopted Alois, giving him his last name. It is not known for what reason she was slightly changed during adoption - from Hiedler to Hitler. Six months later, Nepomuk died, and Alois inherited his farm worth 5,000 florins. Lover of love affairs, the father of Adolf Hitler then already had an illegitimate daughter. Alois first married a woman who was 14 years older than him, but she divorced him when he entered into a love affair with the cook Fanny Matzelsberger. In addition, Alois was attracted by the granddaughter of his adoptive father Nepomuk, sixteen-year-old Clara Pelzl, who was formally his cousin's niece. In 1882, Fanny gave birth to a son from Alois, named after his father, and then a daughter, Angela. Alois was married to Fanny, but she died in 1884.
Even before that, Alois entered into a love affair with the calm, gentle Clara Pelzl. In January 1885, he married her, having received special permission from Rome for this, since the new wife was formally his close relative. In the coming years, Clara gave birth to two boys and one girl, but they all died. On April 20, 1889, Clara's fourth child, Adolf, was born.
Clara Pelzl-Hitler - mother of Adolf Hitler
Three years later, Alois was promoted, and Adolf Hitler's parents moved from Austria to the German city of Passau, where the young Fuhrer forever mastered the Bavarian dialect. When Adolf was almost five years old, his parents had another child - the son of Edmund. In the spring of 1895, the Hitler family moved to Havefeld, a village fifty kilometers southwest of Linz. The Hitlers lived in a peasant house with a field of almost two hectares and were considered wealthy people. Soon, Hitler's parents sent him to an elementary school, whose teachers later recalled him as "a student with a lively mind, obedient, but playful." Even at this age, Adolf showed his oratory skills and soon became a ringleader among his peers. At the beginning of 1896, a daughter, Paula, was also born in the Hitler family.
House in Braunau, where Hitler's family lived and he was born
Alois Hitler retired from customs, leaving behind the memory of a diligent employee, but a rather arrogant man who loved to be photographed in official uniform. Because of his inclinations as a family tyrant, he came into sharp conflict with his eldest son and namesake. At the age of 14, Alois Jr. followed his father's example and ran away from home. The Hitler family moved again - to the town of Lambach, where they settled in a good apartment on the second floor of a spacious house. In 1898, young Adolf graduated from school with twelve "units" - the highest mark in German schools. In 1899, Hitler's father bought a cozy house in Leonding, a village on the outskirts of Linz.
Adolf Hitler in 1889-1890
After the flight of Alois Jr., his father began to drill Adolf. He also thought about running away from the family. Already at the age of eleven, Adolphe strove for leadership. In a photograph from that year, he sits among his classmates, towering over his comrades, with his chin up and his arms folded across his chest. Adolf showed a talent for drawing. The young Fuhrer was very fond of war games and Indians, he read books about the Franco-Prussian war.
Adolf Hitler with classmates (1900)
In 1900, Adolf Hitler's brother, Edmund, died of measles. Adolf dreamed of becoming an artist, but in 1900 his parents sent him to the Linz real school. The big city made a strong impression on the boy. He did not study particularly well, especially in natural science subjects. Among classmates, Adolf Hitler became the leader. “Two extremes of character merged in him, the combination of which is extremely rare for people - he was a calm fanatic,” one of his fellow students later recalled.
On January 3, 1903, the head of the Hitler family, Alois, died of a stroke in a pub. His widow began to receive a good pension. Family tyranny is now a thing of the past. Adolf studied worse and dreamed of becoming a great artist. His older half-sister Angela married Leo Raubal, a tax inspector from Linz. “He lacked self-discipline, he was wayward, arrogant and quick-tempered ... He reacted very painfully to advice and comments, while at the same time demanding from his classmates unquestioning obedience to him as a leader,” one of his Linz students recalled about the then Adolf Hitler teachers. The Hitler boy was very fond of history, especially stories about the ancient Germans. The last, fifth grade, Adolf was already finishing at a real school in Steyr, forty kilometers from Linz. He passed his final exams in mathematics and German only on the second attempt (1905). Now he could continue his studies at a higher real school or technical institute, but, having an aversion to the technical sciences, he convinced his mother of the uselessness of this. At the same time, Adolf referred to a pulmonary disease, which then appeared in him.
He continued to live in Linz, read a lot, painted, went to museums and the opera house. In the autumn of 1905, Hitler became friends with August Kubitschek, who was studying to be a musician. They got very close. Kubizek bowed before his comrade, who often orated in his presence. Hitler told Kubizek about his sublimely romantic love for a certain Stefanie Jansten, a beauty of the "Nordic type", to whom he did not dare to confess his feelings. On this occasion, Hitler was even going to jump from a bridge into the Danube. He spoke to Kubizek about his plans to rebuild the whole of Vienna (planning, among other things, to erect a 100-meter steel tower there). In the spring of 1906, Adolf spent a month in Vienna, and the trip there strengthened his intention to devote his life to painting and architecture.
Hitler's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. In January 1907 she had one of her breasts removed. In September 1907, Hitler, having received his share of the inheritance, about 700 crowns, with the consent of his mother, who constantly spoiled him, went to Vienna to enter the Academy of Arts. But he failed the exam. In October 1907, the Jewish doctor Bloch, who was treating Clara Hitler, informed Adolf that she was in a very bad condition. Adolf returned home from Vienna and selflessly looked after his mother, sparing no money for her treatment. On December 21, Clara died, and her son mourned her fervently. “In all my practice,” Dr. Bloch later recalled, “I have never seen a more inconsolable person than Adolf Hitler.”
To date, the question of where he found his last fate and Where is Adolf Hitler buried?? It should be noted that most of the dark spots and ambiguities in this topic arise due to the obvious unwillingness of the state authorities of various countries to exchange information data. Based on this, this issue remains in its essence not fully elucidated. However, based on the known versions of the Fuhrer's death, it is possible to build a logical chain of facts that can lead to the correct answer to the question under consideration.
According to an official investigation conducted by specialists from an organization that carried out professional activities in the field of counterintelligence of the USSR, Hitler and his wife Eva Braun died on April 30, 1945. The incident took place at fifteen thirty minutes. After, their corpses were doused with a flammable liquid, burned and immediately buried in a garden nearby from the Reichstag. After four days, the bodies were exhumed by Soviet soldiers from their burial place and transferred to the Berlin morgue for a set of actions and investigative measures. After analyzing the data available from Hitler's personal dentist and examining the excavated jaw, the representatives of the investigation confidently confirmed that their resemblance is one hundred percent and that the body really belongs to the former leader of Nazi Germany.
After the actions taken, the investigation was immediately stopped and all the data obtained in Berlin automatically fell under state secrets. There is a version that parts of Hitler's body, in particular the jaw and fragments of the skull, are in the archives of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. However, the version in question where Hitler is buried is blurred, as information periodically emerges about the location of new places of his burial. In the conditions of modern realities, specialists in the field of historical sciences have already counted seven burial places of the Fuhrer. This fact has a completely objective justification, which consists in the fact that special forces of various states, under the systematic pressure of political authorities, after the war, constantly transferred Hitler's remains to different places. In particular, the last location of their burial is a paramilitary town located in the vicinity of a German city called Magdeburg.
But it is worth noting that the history of the movement of the remains and places where Hitler is buried does not end with this aspect. There are testimonies from people that the leader of Nazism did not commit suicide, but successfully bought off the allies for a rather impressive financial sum, and also provided the most important scientific German developments in the field of nuclear technology and advanced aspects of rocket science. After that, he emigrated to Argentina, where he was last seen in 1964.
As for the explanation of the fact that Hitler died in the capital of Germany, it could simply be one of his many doubles that the leaders of the largest states in the world have always had. Despite the fact that the question of the place of burial of the Fuhrer is replete with white spots, over time, more and more new facts appear, and they have a logical and reasonable confirmation. Based on this, at this pace, this question will contain an objective answer.
Hitler's grave. What does the burial place of the great leader look like?
Versions and assumptions that Adolf Hitler survived after April 1945 appeared a long time ago and every year, through the provision of new facts by historians on this topic, they acquire more and more logical and in their own way justified confirmation. Also, more and more often there are witnesses, according to whose stories it becomes clear that they personally saw the Fuhrer.
Based on this information data, it is possible to track exactly where the Hitler's grave. Despite the fact that after the victory of the Allies over Nazi Germany, investigative measures were carried out by the USSR specialists to examine the remains of the leader, they are counterbalanced by the hypothesis that Hitler had many close associates during his reign, who are his absolute twins.
To date, historians have available testimonies from residents of a small village located in the state of Brazil called Mato Grosso, who claim in them that they witnessed the last days of Adolf Hitler's life. Quite recently, a full-fledged exhumation procedure was performed for that person who, in the mid-thirties and forties of the twentieth century, shook more than half of the countries of the entire world space with his aggressive military actions. Many people are interested in knowing what the grave of the leader of Nazism looks like, and today, when analyzing all kinds of foreign sources of historical subjects, they have found photo of Hitler's grave. According to witnesses, he arrived in Argentina by sea after the Allied victory, but in the early seventies he had to quickly leave this country, and therefore, under the guise of a Catholic priest, Hitler ends up in Brazil. There he changes his surname to Lepping.
There is a version according to which the Fuhrer arrived in Brazil, not only hiding from the natural retribution hanging over him, but also in order to search for a large number of treasures that were hidden in the cave system located in the northern part of this country. This fact is another confirmation that Hitler's grave is located in this area. Based on the foregoing, it can be concluded that grave of Adolf Hitler is located for well-founded and understandable reasons in South America.
The most famous versions of Hitler's death
The person of Adolf Hitler is in the historical aspect very extraordinary and mysterious, especially after his death. To date, there are a large number of versions of the death of the leader of Nazi Germany, and as a general rule, each subsequent assumption becomes the most logical and justified, which suggests that at such a pace the true death of the leader will soon be finally unraveled. In today's realities version of Hitler's death differ from each other, but their basis is primarily taken from an assumption of an official nature.
The official version of Hitler's death lies in his suicide, committed by him on the thirtieth of April, one thousand nine hundred and forty-five, in the afternoon. It is also worth noting that before his death, he poisoned his wife Eva Braun, with whom they were married a few hours before their death.
After the death of the Fuhrer, his close officers carried the bodies into the garden next to the Reichstag, doused them with flammable liquid, burned them and buried them. It should be noted that after some time the remains were removed and re-buried on the territory of the landfill located near the city of Marburg. After some time, under the influence of state authorities, the remains were exhumed, ground into powder and scattered over the river. In addition to the official historical version, there are several radically different hypotheses about the death of Adolf Hitler. There is an assumption that he died in the seventies in Brazil, after he emigrated there from Argentina, disguised as a clergyman of the Catholic faith. It is worth noting that Eva Braun emigrated with him according to this version.
As for the flight from Berlin to Argentina, the Fuhrer reached this country by sea, by means of a submarine. Also noted were testimonies pointing to the fact that Hitler had been in Chile for some time. There is also a version that before arriving in Argentina, he lived for quite a long time at a special military base, which was located in Antarctica. It should be noted that Hitler had the opportunity to emigrate as a result of a deal between him, the United States and Great Britain. The essence of this deal was that the Fuhrer gives them huge amounts of money and scientific developments in Germany, aimed at studying the specifics of a nuclear nature.
The great leader, the so-called Fuhrer, the founder of National Socialism in Germany. And this is not all the titles of Hitler. German propaganda, led by Joseph Goebbels, did a good job of instilling in people the divine principle of Hitler. But was the leader really the way the propaganda machine painted him? Where is Hitler buried and is there his grave? This is what we will discuss in our article.
The birth of a 20th-century propagandist
Before finding out where Hitler was buried, it is worth talking about how he managed to attract such close attention to his person. It is a mistake to assume that Hitler was born in Germany. In fact, his homeland is Hungary. The baby was born in Braunau an der Inn near the border with Germany. Adolf Hitler took facial features from his mother, in the future it greatly interfered with him. Some fellow party members and ordinary citizens considered him effeminate. He did not despair, grew a mustache and began to wear a military uniform to give himself masculinity.
Previously, he spent his childhood at the Pomeranian Hotel. After his father corrected his financial situation and became an official. Because of this, their family moved frequently. The attention of the young leader was not deprived, his mother gave all her free time to Adolf.
School years
At the age of six, his parents sent him to study at a one-year school of national character. Having accumulated money, in July 1895 the family moved to Gafeld. Here, Hitler's father bought a house with an adjacent plot of 38 thousand m 2.
Studied Adolf Hitler diligently, enjoyed prestige among teachers. True, with the transition from a rural school to a real one, his successes declined. He began to study only subjects that were interesting to him. As a result of this, he stayed for two years in the same class. At the same time, he became interested in politics. The little Fuhrer did not like the church, although he sang in the church choir for some time. An interesting fact: for the first time, Hitler saw a four-pointed swastika in a church.
His attitude to the church was strongly influenced by his father. He did not want worthlessness to grow out of his son, advised him to follow in his own footsteps.
Father's death
Hitler's father died in 1903 from old age and disease. Despite the openly hostile relationship between father and son, Hitler came to his father's funeral and did not hold back his tears.
Mother's death
In 1907, his mother underwent a complex operation to remove breast cancer. In November 1907, the great leader returned to Linz to look after his sick mother. Already on December 21 of this year, Klara Hitler died and was buried next to her husband. After her death, Hitler left for Vienna, having previously issued a survivor's pension for himself and his sister.
The Poor Artist and the Vienna Academy
In September 1907, Hitler arrived in Vienna and decided to enter an art school. However, he was not accepted for training. The rector advised me to take up architecture because of the predominance of paintings of this direction in his portfolio.
In September 1908, he made another attempt to enter the Vienna Art Academy, but failed at the first stage. He made no further such attempts.
Hitler's first big money
Where is Hitler buried? You will learn about this briefly below. First, let's discuss his life path. In Vienna, Hitler did not have money, in 1909 he got a job as an artist and writer. Already in 1910, he sold his paintings to hated Jews through an intermediary. For the most part, he painted postcards, advertising signs and buildings of the city.
Adolf Hitler decided to set up his intermediary and take all the proceeds from the paintings for himself. To do this, he reported to the police commissariat about the theft of one of the paintings and part of the proceeds. A case was filed against the mediator, and he was put in jail for seven days.
Thanks to his cunning, Hitler had a steady income and soon allowed himself to live in grand style. He even gave up his pension in favor of his sister. With his characteristic zeal, he took up self-improvement. He learned two languages, French and English, and began to watch films without translation. It was during this period of his life that he became interested in politics.
Hitler's involvement in World War I
He did not succeed in hiding from military service for a long time; in 1913, the Munich police detained Hitler and handed him over to his colleagues in the Austrian police. But at a medical examination in Salzburg, he was declared unfit for service.
With the outbreak of the First World War, the situation changed. Hitler submitted a petition to the King of Bavaria, in which he asked to enroll him as a volunteer in the army. The next day, the petition was approved, he appeared in the lists of the 16th reserve regiment of List.
In military service, Hitler was not respected among the soldiers. They considered him too weak and feminine, besides, he flattered in front of the higher authorities. Remembering his service, he often lied, talking about his unprecedented courage of spirit and luck.
In 1915 he received his final rank of corporal. He took an active part in the battles with the French troops. For all the time of service he received one shrapnel wound in the thigh. Was hospitalized. In 1918, he was poisoned by gas and was sent to the hospital, where he learned about the defeat of the tripartite alliance.
Received several awards, including the Iron Cross and Service Commendation III Class. He was proud of his regalia and often put them on the militarized uniform of the party.
Hitler blamed the Jews for losing the First World War. In his subjective opinion, they led the Triple Alliance to collapse and the loss of most of the territories of the German Reich.
Campaign courses
In 1919, Hitler was sent to agitation courses, where he stayed for seven days. In the courses he was taught to conduct explanatory conversations with former front-line soldiers. He had to convince them not to join the growing strength of the Communist Party.
On instructions from the military, in 1919 he was sent to a pub where meetings of the German Workers' Party were held. Hitler did not even think of sitting around doing nothing; he began to speak with pan-German agitation. Thanks to his outstanding oratorical talent, he managed to capture the attention of the entire public. After a fiery speech, the founder of the party, Anton Drexler, made an offer to Hitler to join the party.
Party career of a former agitator
Hitler accepted the offer and retired from the army. He set to work zealously, taking on the duties of a propagandist. Skillful propaganda brought the party from forty people to several thousand.
During his trip to Berlin, party leaders negotiated with other factions. This angered Hitler. And in protest on July 11, 1920, he left the party. Hitler's departure from the party is nothing more than a fiction for him and a big problem for the party. At that time he was the most temperamental orator and a prominent politician. The party leadership was forced to ask him to return. And on July 29, 1920, he was elected the main party.
My path is thorny
As a result of the failed overthrow of power in Bavaria, which is called the "Beer Putsch", Hitler was imprisoned. True, instead of five years, he served 9 months in complete comfort and a separate cell. In prison, he wrote his famous work "My Struggle".
After leaving prison, the party was on the verge of disintegration. Hitler had to restore the integrity of the association, in which Ernest Röhm helped him. Since the party was based in Bavaria, it needed access to the rest of Germany. What Gregos Strasser helped with, and Josef Goebbels won the audience of communist Berlin through intrigues and scandals.
On June 7, 1932, Hitler's NSDAP party received 37.8% of the vote. However, on November 6 this year, the party lost about two million votes. Popularity was falling, people wanted to see results, not Fuhrer populism.
However, on January 30, 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor of the Reich. What did not give him the necessary power, he longed for absolute dictatorship. Therefore, he set fire to the Reichstag by the communists and accused them of trying to seize power.
As a result, the Communist Party was banned and its prominent figures were arrested. Internal opposition to the NSAPD was decimated on the night of the Long Knives. The party received the majority of votes and sat in parliament with a majority. However, it was fiction. Hitler received unlimited power.
Military campaigns of the German legions
With the coming to power of Hitler, the army structure was reorganized, new weapons were purchased and produced, and the population was militarized.
In 1939, Poland and Czechoslovakia, France, Bulgaria, and the Benelux countries were captured. In 1941, Germany attacked the USSR. Already in 1943, Soviet soldiers stood on the German border, and in 1944 they completely captured the Third Reich.
When and where is Hitler buried?
More than his own death, he was afraid of losing. When the Allied armies captured Berlin, the brave corporal hid in a bunker with key figures of the Third Reich, from where he managed to command non-existent armies and marry Eva Braun.
Where is Hitler buried? History knows several versions of his death and burial place. The main ones are listed below:
- He shot himself in his own bunker with a firearm, his wife Eva Braun was poisoned by a capsule of potassium cyanide. According to the preliminary instructions drawn up by the leader, their bodies were to be doused with a combustible mixture and burned. Hitler's assistant dentist helped in identification. The leader's teeth were not healthy, so he had dentures inserted. According to their structure, the doctor identified the body of the former patient. There is even a photograph where a bullet hole is visible in Hitler's forehead. However, its authenticity is in question. This version is supported by the fact that after his death, the German command of the Wehrmacht capitulated. Famous Nazis Joseph Goebbels and Martin Bormann committed suicide within hours of Hitler's death. Goebbels took his wife and his model children with him. That is, it is not known where Hitler is buried. His grave has not been found.
- There is an opinion that Hitler had several doubles. And they burned another of them, they made a similar relief of his teeth and plastic surgery of his face. To give veracity poisoned Eva Braun.
- Some historians claim that Hitler took poison. Others that he took poison (potassium cyanide) and shot him in the head at the same time. But where Adolf Hitler is buried remains a mystery.
- He could have escaped through neutral Switzerland. This is what high-ranking Nazis did, preparing documents and escape routes for themselves in advance. Where further their choice fell on Falangist Spain.
- Fled to Latin America. The legend says that Hitler was not in the bunker at all, and he sailed on a submarine to the countries of Latin America. There is allegedly true evidence, such as his military uniform, which was found in Peru or Paraguay. In the future, he radically changed his appearance. May have used the service of a plastic surgeon in Germany before the trip. After all, it was difficult to secretly hold it in another country for a simple reason: the whole world was looking for him. No country believed in his death, thinking that he had escaped from a sinking ship. In Venezuela, Chile and Peru, right-wing sentiment was maintained, and they could provide assistance to Nazi refugees. There were photos that allegedly depict the German leader. You should not blame him for escaping, Adolf Hitler was a courageous brave man. Therefore, such a version is unlikely, and it is difficult to say exactly where Hitler is buried and whether there is a grave.
- Died in 1964. Beginning in 1943, the victory of the Allied forces became obvious, and it was time to take care of the escape routes. The Berlin-Spain-Argentina flight was worked out by Nazi intelligence for a whole year, they bought real estate, kept places in hotels and hotels, and large sums of money were transferred to fake accounts. In April 1945, the secret operation "Seraglio" was carried out. Nazi leaders were airlifted to friendly Spain. Then by submarine to Argentina. Where is Hitler buried? Hardly anyone can answer.
- Where is Hitler buried, whose photo you have the opportunity to see in the article? There is an opinion that he is alive to this day. After 72 years of silence, Adolf Hitler, in the person of an old man from Argentina, got in touch. He went into public relations because of false accusations against Hitler. In his book, he promises to debunk the myths about him and write his own biography. His wife talked about her husband's development of Alzheimer's disease. Perhaps that is why this man imagined himself a Nazi leader.
For science fiction writers, other versions were also invented, more similar to the headlines of the yellow newspapers: “Hitler is hiding on a moon base”, “Adolf Hitler is hiding in Antarctica” or “Hitler is captured by aliens”. Although it may be true.
