German submarine U-188 was a Type IXC/40 U-boat of Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine built for service during World War II. Laid down on 18 August 1941 by Deutsche Schiff- und Maschinenbau AG (DeSchiMAG) of Bremen as yard number 1028, she was launched on 31 March 1942 and commissioned on 5 August under the command of Oberleutnant zur See Siegfried Lüdden. The boat carried out three patrols and she was a member of three wolfpacks. She sank eight ships and one warship; she also damaged one ship. She was scuttled at Bordeaux, France on 25 August 1944. The wreck was broken up in 1947.
