Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The 7-0, 240-pound Elson joins the Bucks after splitting last season with San Antonio and Seattle.
"Francisco is a player of high character who will bring length and athleticism to the front line," Bucks general manager John Hammond said. "In addition, he has extensive playoff experience and has been part of an NBA Championship team. He knows what it takes to be a part of a winning team and we welcome a player with his level of experience."
Elson, 32, began last season with San Antonio and appeared in 41 games with averages of 3.5 points and 3.3 rebounds before a February trade sent him to Seattle. He played 22 games for the Sonics and posted averages of 3.0 points and 3.0 rebounds.
