Ernesto Cardenal Martínez was a Nicaraguan Catholic priest, revolutionary, poet, and politician.

A former member of the Nicaraguan Sandinistas, he was Nicaragua's minister of culture from 1979 to 1987. He was prohibited from administering the sacraments in 1984 by Pope John Paul II, but rehabilitated by Pope Francis in 2019.
