Carlos Frederico Lecor (October 6, 1764 – August 2, 1836) was a Portuguese general and politician.
He was the first Baron of Laguna, in Portugal, and later ascended to Viscount of Laguna, in Brazil. He was most notably the only non-British General to have commanded one of the Anglo-Portuguese divisions of Wellington's Peninsular Army (the seventh, in late 1813), as well as having commanded the Portuguese forces who invaded the Banda Oriental del Uruguay (Eastern Bank of Uruguay) in 1816. His last name is sometimes written as Lecór or Le Cor.
The latter is very common in English sources of the 19th century.
Most Spanish sources give him as Carlos Federico Lecor.
