Jan Bula (24 July 1920 Lukov – 20 May 1952 Jihlava) was a Czech Roman Catholic priest and victim of the Czechoslovak Communist regime.

He was sentenced to death in one of the show trials of the Babice case and hanged. In 1990 he was posthumously rehabilitated.

The Catholic Church has been considering his beatification since 2004.{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=KB0CAwAAQBAJ&dq=%22Jan+Bula%22&pg=PT93|title=Religion and Politics in Post-Socialist Central and Southeastern Europe: Challenges since 1989|last=Ramet|first=S.|date=2014-01-31|publisher=Springer|isbn=9781137330727|language=en}} The Roman Catholic Diocese of Brno is conducting the proceedings.{{Cite news|url=https://www.cirkev.cz/archiv/080815-beatification-candidates-iii-diocese-of-brno|title=Beatification candidates III: Diocese of Brno - Církev.cz|access-date=2017-07-11|language=en}}
