The List of ships sunk at the Battle of Jutland is a list of ships which were lost during the Battle of Jutland.

This battle was fought between the British Royal Navy's Grand Fleet and the Imperial German Navy's High Seas Fleet on 31 May and 1 June 1916, during the First World War. The list is in chronological order of the time of sinking.

  • Time-of-day versus "action" may vary, as some ships received their deadly damage during one action but limped through to a later time or even a later action.
  • The majority of British loss of life came from Vice-Admiral Sir David Beatty's battlecruiser force, which lost Queen Mary and Indefatigable in the opening minutes, and Invincible two hours later, with a total of 3,309 lives lost.
