- Following the death of Adolf Hitler, as President (not Chancellor) of the Third Reich during the first week of May 1945, he negotiated Germany's surrender in WWII to the Allied powers.
- He is referred to, by name, in Winston Churchill's V-E Day speech, 8 May 1945.
- German naval officer during World War II who attained the rank of Großadmiral, the Navy's equivalent of a Field Marshal.
- A framed photo of Dönitz appears prominently on the wall of the submarine in El submarino (Das Boot) (1981).
- He was sentence to ten years' imprisonment at the Nuremberg Trials for waging unrestricted warfare at sea, even though the British and Americans had done likewise throughout the Battles of the Atlantic and the Pacific.

- I would rather eat dirt than see my grandchildren grow up in the filthy, poisonous atmosphere of Jewry.
- I never had any idea of the goings-on as far as Jews were concerned. Hitler said each man should take care of his business and mine was U-boats and the Navy.
