Carol Claudiu O'Donell, conte de Tyrconnel (n. 1715, Spania - d. 26 martie 1771, Viena, Austria) a fost general-comandant, comisar imperial şi preşedinte al guvernului Transilvaniei între anii 1767-1770, pe vremea când această provincie se găsea sub stăpânirea austriecilor.

Originea şi familia

Provenea dintr-o familie nobile irlandeze din comitatul Tyrconnel, Irlanda. Un strămoş s-a stabilit în Spania, unde s-a născut şi Carol Claudiu.

Nu a fost căsătorit şi nu a avut urmaşi.

Activitatea

A intrat în serviciul Austriei în anul 1736, iar la terminarea războiului austro-turc din anii 1737-1738 ajunsese deja la gradul de maior. La 45 ani a ajuns la gradul de general. Cel mai mult s-a evidenţiat în războiul de 7 ani.

În 1765 a primit gradul de inspector general de cavalerie.

A fost numit general-comandant şi comisar imperial în Transilvania în luna noiembrie 1767. După doar o lună, la 14 decembrie 1767, împărăteasa Maria Tereza a decis să îi acorde şi funcţia de preşedinte al guvernului Transilvaniei. A avut ca sarcină ocrotirea religiei catolice şi protejarea saşilor din Transilvania, întocmai ca predecesorul său, generalul Andrei Hadik.

La 27 martie 1768 a sosit la Sibiu.

În timpul guvernării sale a cerut împărătesei Austriei un episcop ortodox pentru românii din Transilvania, care putea fi folosit pentru a controla românii în sensul dorit de austrieci.

A luat anumite măsuri pentru îmbunătăţirea situaţiei economice a unor categorii sociale sărace, a înfiinţat la Sibiu un orfelinat, copii de aici urmând a fi catolicizaţi toţi, indiferent de religia iniţială a lor.

La 30 ianuarie 1770 a fost demis din funcţia de comandant al trupelor din Transilvania, iar la 28 septembrie 1770 i s-a ordonat să se întoarcă la Viena.

La 31 ianuarie 1771 a fost pensionat.

Moartea

A murit la 26 martie 1771 la Viena, unde a şi fost îngropat.
