Klara Hitler (née Pölzl; 12 August 1860 – 21 December 1907) was the mother of Adolf Hitler, dictator of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945. According to the family physician, Eduard Bloch, she was a quiet, sweet, and affectionate person.[1] In 1934, Adolf Hitler honored his mother by naming a street in Passau after her.[2]
