Naturalization of Adolf Hitler
Adolf Hitler, dictator of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945, took naturalization process for seven years, from April 1925 to February 1932, when Hitler finally became a German citizen and was able to run for political office.
Adolf Hitler was born in Braunau am Inn, a town in Austria-Hungary (now in modern-day Austria) in 1889. Although an Austrian citizen, he served in the Imperial German Army on the Western Front during World War I. In 1919, Hitler joined the German Workers' Party (DAP) which would subsequently become the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP). He gained national notoriety with a failed putsch (armed insurgency) in Munich in November 1923, which led to a trial for high treason and prison for nine months in 1924. The Bavarian authorities attempted several times to deport Hitler afterwards, but Austria refused to take him back.
The court explained why it rejected the deportation of Hitler under the terms of the Protection of the Republic Act:
Hitler is a German-Austrian. He considered himself to be a German. In the opinion of the court, the meaning and the terms of section 9, para II of the Law for the Protection of the Republic cannot apply to a man who thinks and feels as German as Hitler, who voluntarily served for four and a half years in the German army at war, who attained high military honours through outstanding bravery in the face of the enemy, was wounded, suffered other damage to his health, and was released from the military into the control of the district Command Munich I“.
Thus, since the court refused to deport Hitler, he was allowed to remain in Germany.
When Hitler's legal status became a matter of public discussion in 1924, he made a public declaration which was printed on 16 October 1924 that stated:
The loss of my Austrian citizenship is not painful to me, as I never felt as an Austrian citizen but always as a German only. ... It was this mentality that made me draw the ultimate conclusion and do military service in the German Army.
On April 7, 1925, Hitler applied to the High Magistrate of Linz in order to be released from his Austrian citizenship:
