List of Polish admirals

The following is a list of Polish officers holding the rank of admiral, as well as generals serving in the Polish Navy. Prior to 1918 the term admirał (and, consistently, wiceadmirał and kontradmirał) referred to a function held in the navy rather than a military rank as such.
