Hermann Hoth (Neuruppin, 12 aprile 1885 – Goslar, 25 gennaio 1971) è stato un generale e criminale di guerra tedesco, che prestò servizio nella Wehrmacht durante la seconda guerra mondiale. Ufficiale molto esperto e risoluto, si dimostrò uno dei più abili comandanti di forze corazzate della Wehrmacht; dal 1939 fino al novembre 1943 guidò ininterrottamente Panzer-Division, Panzerkorps e Panzerarmee su tutti i fronti conseguendo spesso grandi successi e dimostrando sempre capacità, preparazione e spirito combattivo sia nella vittoria che nella sconfitta.
