Tommaso Condulmier also spelled Condulmer, Gondulmier or Gondulmiero (Venice, 20 August 1759 - Venice, 7 January 1823) was an italian noble and admiral. After the death of Angelo Emo he took command of the Armada Grossa, and held major responsibilities in the aborted defense of Venice against Napoleon, that eventually led to the fall of the Most Serene Republic of Venice in 1797.
Born in Venice from a noble family that held the patrician dignity, he enlisted at an early age in the navy.
In June 1784, when Emo launched his campaign against the Berber pirates, he was governator di nave (captain) on the 56-gun heavy frigate Concordia stationed in Corfù: after the arrival of the venetian Grand Admiral on the island, he was put under his command, and eventually set sails for Tunis with the Venetian squadron.
