Emilio Lissón (1878 - 1961) was an Archbishop of Lima, Peru.
Lissón was born in the city of Arequipa to a catholic family. He entered into the Congregation of Saint Vincent de Paul and was ordained as a priest in Paris in 1909.
In 1909, he was nominated as Archbishop of Chachapoyas, a charge that he exercised until 1918, the year in which he assumed the charge of Archbishop of Lima and Primate of Peru. In 1911 he visited the General Curia of the Pasionistas in Rome to request help for the work in the diocese of Chachapoyas. As a result, six priests and six brothers were assigned to him in 1913, and worked there until 1918.
Lissón organized and presided at several episcopal assemblies, as well as at a Diocesan Synod (1926) and a Provincial Council (1927). He promoted the creation of the Apostolic Prefecture of San Gabriel of the Cashew, with head office in Yurimaguas in charge of the Pasionistas.
His successor was Monsignor Mariano Holguín, as apostolic manager between 1931 and 1933, after which Monsignor Pedro Pascual Farfán assumed the Archbishop's charge of Lima.
Lissón then moved to Spain, devoting himself to compiling papers of the history of the Church in Peru and died there in 1961.
