Adolf Hitler had children.

Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Adolf Hitler had children?

Partly. One source reports a historian's 1977 claim that Hitler fathered a son, while another notes the alleged son Jean-Marie Loret but says historians consider his paternity unlikely or unprovable and DNA found no common ancestry. Neither settles whether Hitler had children.
