Yes, it was meant to put blame on the communists.
The Reichstag fire was a pivotal event in the establishment of Nazi Germany. The fire began at 21:14 on the night of February 27, 1933, when a Berlin fire station received an alarm that the Reichstag building, the assembly location of the German Parliament, was ablaze
The party leaders were determined to demonstrate the Reichstag Fire was a deed of the Comintern (Communists), and in early March 1933, three men were arrested who were to play pivotal roles during the Leipzig Trial, known also as "Reichstag Fire Trial," namely three Bulgarians: Georgi Dimitrov, Vasil Tanev and Blagoi Popov. The Bulgarians were known to the Prussian police as senior Comintern operatives, but the police had no idea how senior they were: Dimitrov was head of all Comintern operations in Western Europe.

Current historians seem to agree that the Nazis planned the "disaster." The fall guy was too perfect in meeting the Nazis propoganda.
Note how the Bush gang used 9/11 to attack Iraq.
