On the street outside the UK's most northerly cathedral, islanders young and old crowded the pavements as the Royal Marines band led a naval contingent, bayonets gleaming to the morning commemoration.
It was a powerful reminder of Orkney's naval history; Britain's Grand Fleet sailed to Jutland from the deep anchorage at Scapa Flow. Nearly 6,000 men never returned.
The services at Kirkwall and Lyness mark the loss of 25 ships, British and German, in a clash which resulted in no clear victory.
A century ago an islander called Margaret Tait captured the mood after the battle.
"What a gloom was cast over the town, and how depressed we were to think of our noble ships, brave sailors and officers."
Later, family members and representatives of today's navies will re-tell the stories of Jutland, and remember those who still lie beneath the dark waters of the North Sea.
Representatives of all the other nations connected to the battle - Australia, Canada, Ireland, Japan, Malta, New Zealand and South Africa - were at the cathedral.
The commemoration was led by the minister of the cathedral, Fraser MacNaughton.
He was joined by the Royal Navy's chaplain of the fleet, the Venerable Ian Wheatley, and a German naval chaplain.
In the North Sea, The German ship FGS Schleswig-Holstein will join HMS Duncan at Jutland Bank.
