The Hermsdorfer Kreuz is a cloverleaf interchange in the German state Thuringia.
The motorway interchange forms the connection between the A9 Dreieck Potsdam-Munich and the A4 Kirchheimer Dreieck-Polish border northeast of Görlitz.
The motorway interchange lays in the municipal area of Schleifreisen in the Saale-Holzland-Kreis, near the towns of Hermsdorf and Reichenbach. It is a major important traffic connection between the east-west A4 connecting the Netherlands with Poland and the A9 connecting Berlin via Munich to the Austrian cities of Innsbruck and Salzburg.
The traffic infrastructure of the Hermsdorfer Kreuz has its origins in old merchant routes that ran via Hermsdorf, Regensburg and Tyrnau (Trnava) towards Rome. The interchange proper exists since December 1936. It was built to finish the Reichsautobahn 9 as a continues link between Berlin und Munich. This makes the Hermsdorfer Kreuz the second oldest motorway interchange in Germany, after the Schkeuditzer Kreuz.
