This document discusses the rumor that Jose Rizal, the Philippine national hero, was the biological father of Adolf Hitler. However, it finds this claim to be fiction rather than history for several reasons:
1) Klara Polzl, Hitler's mother, was married to Alois Hitler at the time of Adolf's birth and there is no evidence she had an affair.
2) Klara was described as a devout Catholic who was devoted to her family, making an affair seem unlikely.
3) Alois Hitler was 51 years old when Adolf was born, and it is believed he may have had low fertility at that age, increasing the chances the child was not biologically his.

Rizal did spent a night with an unknown Austrian woman. Viola remembers that they were billeted in the Hotel Metropole, Vienna and Rizal encountered the figure of a temptress in the form of Viennese woman, of the family of the Camelliasor Maragarite of extraordinary beauty and irresistible attraction, who seemingly had been expressly invited to offer for a moment the cup of mundane pleasure to the apostle of the Philippine freedom who until then had enjoyed among his intimates the fame worthy of his glorious namesake, St. Joseph. With the exception of this case, I knew of no other slip of Rizal during his more than six months of our living together. RIZAL’S LOST- AND-FOUND STICKPIN

work. Is it possible for Rizal and Klara to have an affair?
ANSWER: YES HISTORY OR FICTION? HISTORICAL RUMOR
IS THE RUMOR THAT RIZAL WAS ADOLF
HITLER’S FATHER HISTORY OR FICTION? KLARA POLZL’S HUSBAND • Alois Hitler, a senior customs official • Married three times • Klara Polzl Hitler was his third wife. • Born on June 7, 1837 in the village of Strones in the Waldviertel • Mother: Maria Anna Schicklgruber, a 42- year-old unmarried peasant • Died on January 3, 1903 Furthermore, it might also be that Klara had an affair with another man, since her husband, Alois Hitler, was already fifty-one years old when Adolf was born. From the point of view of the biological make up of man, fifty-one years old would likely be very less able or unable in sexual act. On the contrary, if it is true that Klara was a “devout Roman Catholic and went to Church regularly,” it would seem very unlikely for Klara to be unfaithful to her husband. For a truly devout Roman Catholic is indeed faithful to God, as well as to one’s spouse. WAS RIZAL THE FATHER OF ADOLF HITLER?
