Jan Bażyński (Template:Lang-de) (ca. 1380 – 9 November 1459) was a Prussian knight and statesman.
Baysen served the Teutonic Knights and their Grand Masters, among them Konrad von Erlichshausen and Ludwig von Erlichshausen.
Following growing dissatisfaction among Prussians with the order's rule, Baysen joined the Prussian Confederation and led their uprising against the Knights. After the Thirteen Years' War, he was made governor of Royal Prussia, which had been made a part of Poland. He died at Marienburg Castle (Malbork Castle).
