His eminence Lorenzo Cybo de Mari (died 21 December 1503) was an Italian Catholic cardinal. He was archbishop of Benevento.

He was made cardinal on 9 March 1489 by his uncle, pope Innocent VIII.

He also was bishop of Vannes in France, bishop of Palestrina (1493), bishop of Albano (1501) and bishop of Noli (1502).

Lorezo was an illegitimate child. According to some sources his paternity was attributed to Domenico de Mari, patrician of Genoa, brother of Teodorina and uncle of Maurizio Cybo. Now it looks likely that Maurizio (d. April 1491) was his father, his mother an unknown Spanish lady.
