Upon commissioning, Prinz Adalbert served as a gunnery training ship, a role she held for the majority of her career. After the outbreak of World War I in August 1914, she was assigned to the reconnaissance forces in the Baltic. After her sister ship was sunk in November 1914, she became the flagship of the cruiser squadron in the Baltic. She conducted operations against Russian forces in the Baltic, including bombarding the port of Libau. She was torpedoed by a British submarine in July 1915, but was able to return to port and was repaired. She was torpedoed a second time on 23 October 1915; the torpedo detonated her ammunition magazines and destroyed the ship. She sank quickly with heavy loss of life; only three men were rescued from a crew of 675. __TOC__
