Design
Like all Type XXIII U-boats, U-2328 had a displacement of 234 t when at the surface and 258 t while submerged. She had a total length of 34.68 m (o/a), a beam width of 3.02 m (o/a), and a draught depth of3.66 m. The submarine was powered by one MWM six-cylinder RS134S diesel engine providing 575 - 630 PS, one AEG GU4463-8 double-acting electric motor electric motor providing 580 PS, and one BBC silent running CCR188 electric motor providing 35 PS.

The submarine had a maximum surface speed of 9.7 kn and a submerged speed of 12.5 kn. When submerged, the boat could operate at 4 kn for 194 nmi; when surfaced, she could travel 2600 nmi at 8 kn. U-2328 was fitted with two 53.3 cm torpedo tubes in the bow. She could carry two preloaded torpedoes. The complement was 14–18 men. This class of U-boat did not carry a deck gun.

Service history
On 9 May 1945, U-2328 surrendered at Bergen, Norway. She was later transferred to Loch Ryan, Scotland on 30 May 1945. Of the 156 U-boats that eventually surrendered to the Allied forces at the end of the war, U-2328 was one of 116 selected to take part in Operation Deadlight. U-2328 was towed out to be sunk on 27 November 1945, but she would become one of 55 other boats that didn't make it to the scuttling area because she started taking on water, U-2328 sank while in tow.

The wreck now lies at 56.2°N, -9.8°W.
