Manuel Gonçalves Cerejeira, GCC, GCSE, GCIH (29 November 1888, Lousado, Vila Nova de Famalicão, Portugal[1] – 1 August 1977, Benfica, Lisbon, Portugal) was a Portuguese cardinal who served as Patriarch of Lisbon from 1929 to 1971.

Following his ordination, he became a faculty member of the University of Coimbra, during which time he became a respected and revered intellectual and religious figure.

He replaced António Mendes Belo, who had experienced two very different periods during his twenty-year cardinalate: a time of anti-church hostility in the first years of the Portuguese republic and a more church-friendly climate following the military coup of 1926.

During his extraordinarily long career as Portugal's leading Catholic churchman, Cerejeira often became associated with the authoritarian right-wing Estado Novo.

This was the result of his friendship with Prime Minister António de Oliveira Salazar, who had been a university colleague of his at Coimbra, and his endorsement of many of the Estado Novo's policies.
