Manuela Montebrun (born 13 November 1979 in Laval, Mayenne) is a retired, female hammer thrower from France.
Montebrun won two back-to-back World Championship bronze medals in 2003 and 2005. She had finished fourth in the final of the 2005 World Championships, but was belatedly awarded the bronze medal in 2013 when the 2005 World Championships gold medallist Olga Kuzenkova was stripped of her gold medal for doping.
Montebrun's outdoor, personal best throw is 74.66 metres, achieved on 11 July 2005 in Zagreb, Croatia.
Montebrun retired from athletics in June 2012.
