Bernd Hahn (born 16 November 1954 in Elbingerode) is an East German luger who competed from the early 1970s to the early 1980s. He won two gold medals in the men's doubles event at the FIL World Luge Championships (1974, 1981).

Hahn also won four medals in the men's doubles event at the FIL European Luge Championships with three silvers (1973, 1978, 1980) and one bronze (1975).
