Cyril John Vogel (January 15, 1905 – October 4, 1979) was an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. He served as Bishop of Salina from 1965 until his death in 1979.

The second youngest of ten children, Cyril Vogel was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Henry J. and Mary Agnes (née Foley) Vogel. After graduating from Duquesne University, he studied at St. Vincent's Seminary in Latrobe and was later ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Hugh Charles Boyle on June 7, 1931.

Vogel then served as a curate in Pittsburgh before becoming pastor of Sacred Heart Church in Sagamore in 1950. He was also Director of Adult Education and a member of the Diocesan Tribunal. When the Diocese of Greensburg was erected in 1951, Sacred Heart fell under its jurisdiction. He concurrently served as pastor of St. John Baptist de la Salle in Delmont and Holy Family Church at Latrobe as well as chancellor of the Greensburg Diocese. In 1960 he was named vicar general.
