The ship was launched in 1896. Ministro Zenteno was one of four protected cruisers ordered by Brazil, but they eventually acquired only Almirante Barroso due to financial difficulties. The sister ships Amazonas (later USS New Orleans) and Almirante Abreu (later USS Albany) were purchased by the United States Navy.
