Paul von Hindenburg
1847 CE–1934 CE · Berlin, Germany
Paul von Hindenburg was a German field marshal and statesman who commanded German forces in the First World War and later served as President of the Weimar Republic from 1925 until his death in 1934. A national hero for his wartime role, he was elected president and re-elected in 1932, defeating Adolf Hitler. In January 1933, under political pressure and the advice of his circle, he appointed Hitler as Chancellor, an act that opened the way to the Nazi dictatorship. He died in office in August 1934, after which Hitler merged the offices of chancellor and president.
