Hernádnémeti is a village in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County in northeastern Hungary.

[2] It is situated on the left bank of the Hernád River, 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) from Miskolc.

During the Mongol invasion it was completely depopulated; it was resettled in 1254 by Germans who were invited to the country by the king.

The village was again destroyed during the Turkish invasions; in 1567 the area is referred to as being unpopulated.

At this time the village became Protestant due to an influx of hajduk settlers.
