[[File:Reichstag Fire.jpg|right|300px|thumb|]]
On February 27, 1933, the [[Reichstag]] in [[Berlin]] was destroyed in a fire that had plainly been deliberately set. Exactly who set the fire remains a question never fully resolved. Most contemporary observers both in and outside of Germany blamed and still blame the Nazis themselves, though Shirer admits in "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" that "The whole truth about the Reichstag Fire will probably never be known." <ref>The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, Book Two, "Triumph and Consolidation."
