Andreas Hajek (born 16 April 1968 in Weißenfels) is a retired German rower.

At the 1986 World Rowing Championships, he replaced a sick Thomas Lange at short notice when he was only 18; he won a bronze medal at that occasion. Hajek was the youngest East German team member that year.[2] During his career Hajek became a two-time Olympic champion[1] and five-time world champion.[3]
