Beusichem is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is a part of the municipality of Buren, and lies about northwest of Tiel.

== History == It was first mentioned between 918 and 948 Buosinhem, and means "settlement of the people of Boso (person)". Beusichem started as a settlement near the Lek River and developed into a stretched out esdorp. The tower of the Dutch Reformed Church contains 12th-century elements. The church was restored in 1995–1996. In 1840, it was home to 1,004 people.
