Bucyrus (/b//j//uː/'/s//aɪ//r//ə//s/ bewSYrəs) is a city in the U. S. state of Ohio and the county seat of Crawford County, located in northern Ohio approximately 28 miles (45 km) west of Mansfield and 66 mile (106 km) southeast of Toledo. The population was 11,684 at the time of the 2020 census. The city is the largest in Crawford County, and the center of the Bucyrus Micropolitan Statistical Area (as defined by the United States Census Bureau in 2003).

The origin of the name Bucyrus is not certain. It was given by James Kilbourne, who laid out the town in 1821. One theory is that the name Bucyrus is derived from "beautiful" coupled with the name of Cyrus the Great, founder of the First Persian Empire. An alternate theory is that the city was named after Busiris, a city of ancient Egypt. Bucyrus was once home to the Dostal Brothers Brewery. Founded in 1902, the brewery was run by John M. and George A. Dostal. The Lincoln Highway, later US Route 30, was routed through the city along Mansfield Street in 1913. In 1971 a modern, limited access bypass was built to the north, but the associated freeway links to the east and west of Bucyrus, replacing the old two lane Lincoln Highway route, were not completed until 2005, nearly 35 years after they were first proposed. Ohio Central Traction Company, an interurban line that connected the two communities of Bucyrus and Galion, developed Seccaium Park at the end of the nineteenth century. There was a notable landmark of an Elephant with a “B” atop the Geiger Clothing store (since demolished) on Washington Square. This was to promote Geiger's motto which was, “Buy your clothing here, for it will last like the hide of an elephant.”

On March 10, 2007, Bucyrus was featured as the town of the week on the nationally syndicated Public Radio International program, Whad'Ya Know?.

The Swan Rubber and Tire Company originated in Toledo on September 27, 1927. In 1929 the name is changed to Swan Rubber Company as tire production declined. In 1940 the company bought 30 acres along Beal Ave., the current site of the Bucyrus operations, until the facilities closed in the early part of this century. In 1950 the company began recycling and reclaiming rubber products, and by 1993 Swan became the largest recycling site in the state of Ohio.
