Giuseppe Garibaldi was an Italian Duca degli Abruzzi-class light cruiser, that served in the Regia Marina during World War II.

She was built by CRDA, in Stabilimento Tecnico Triestino shipyard Trieste and named after the Italian general Giuseppe Garibaldi.

On 9 July at the Battle of Calabria, Giuseppe Garibaldi along with her sister, Luigi di Savoia Duca degli Abruzzi, fired the first rounds of the engagement.

During the engagement, splinters from a 6-inch round fired by Giuseppe Garibaldi[1][2] hit the British cruiser HMS Neptune, damaging her catapult and the reconnaissance aircraft beyond repair.

On 7 March, Giuseppe Garibaldi took part in Operation V 5, escorting a large Axis convoy to Libya along with fellow Condottieri-class cruiser, Eugenio di Savoia.

On 14 June Giuseppe Garibaldi participated in the successful action against convoy Vigorous, an attempt to resupply Malta by the Royal Navy.
