Manuel Caetano de Sousa

Manuel Caetano de Sousa (1738–1802) was a Portuguese architect.

On the death of Mateus Vicente de Oliveira he became architect to the royal family and was appointed architect in charge of public works and raised to the rank of an artillery colonel.

His works included the church of the "Incarnation, of S. Domingos" and the Bemposta Chapel.

In 1795, to honour of the birth of Dom António, 4th Prince of Beira, de Sousa designed an amphitheatre for use as a bull ring constructed in the Praça do Comércio in Lisbon.
