The Albatros B.I was a German military reconnaissance aircraft designed in 1913 and which saw service during World War I.

The B.I was a two-seat biplane of conventional configuration that seated the observer and the pilot in separate cockpits in tandem. The wings were originally of three-bay design, but were later changed to a two-bay, unstaggered configuration. A floatplane version was developed as the Albatros W.I.

The B.Is were withdrawn from front line service in 1915 but some examples served as trainers for the remainder of the war.

A surviving example of the B.I is preserved at the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum in Vienna.
