Joseph Francis Buh (BOO, Slovene: Jožef Frančišek Buh; March 17, 1833 – February 2, 1922) was a Slovene Catholic priest ordained in 1858 who arrived as a missionary in Minnesota in 1864. While he originally arrived in Minnesota to minister to the Slovene population, Buh began to minister to the indigenous Ojibwe population. He helped found over 50 parishes in the area, earning him the title the "Patriarch of the Diocese of Duluth". After his death in 1922, a small cult of devotion developed towards Buh. Interest in opening a cause for canonization was renewed in the 2020s. Buh also significantly contributed to the ethnic organization of the Slovene immigrants in the United States.
