José Cipriano Castro (1895-1958) was a Salvardoran political figure. Cipriano Castro was El Salvador's delegate at the 1933 Pan-American Conference in Montevideo, Uruguay. He seems to have been a political opponent of the dictator General Maximiliano Hernández Martínez. In fact, Cipriano Castro is reported to have written a letter to Martínez in 1938 urging him to not seek a third term of office. In January 1945, he was a candidate for president, although he received only one vote.

He is rumored to have spent the last few years of his life living in Mexico.
