1412 Lagrula, provisional designation 1937 BA, is an asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 7 or 23 kilometers in diameter, depending on the body's divergent reflectivity measurements.

It was discovered on 19 January 1937, by French astronomer Louis Boyer at the North African Algiers Observatory in Algeria.[10] It was later named after French astronomer Philippe Lagrula.[2]
