Angela Maria "Geli" Raubal (German pronunciation: [ˈɡeːli ˈʁaʊbal]; 4 June 1908 – 18 September 1931) was an Austrian woman who was the half-niece of Adolf Hitler.
Angela Maria "Geli" Raubal was born in Linz, Austria-Hungary on 4 June 1908,[1][2] where she was raised with her brother Leo and sister Elfriede.
[6] Raubal moved into Hitler's Munich apartment in 1929 when she enrolled in medicine at Ludwig Maximilian University but she did not complete her studies.
[2] As Hitler rose to power as leader of the Nazi Party, he was domineering and possessive of Raubal, keeping control of her.
[4] Her mother told interrogators after the war that Hitler had forbidden her daughter to continue her relationship with a man from Linz whom she was hoping to marry.
Rumours immediately began in the media about physical abuse, a possible sexual relationship, an infatuation by Raubal for her uncle, and even murder.
