Campbellsburg is a home rule-class city in Henry County, Kentucky. It is home to many locally owned small businesses, as well as Post 5 of the Kentucky State Police.


The city was incorporated by the state legislature in 1840 as "Chiltonsville" in honor of its trustee Charles J. Chilton, but the name was changed within three weeks to "Campbellsburg" for another local family. Later the same year, the local post office at Benevola was renamed "Campbellsburg" as well. The arrival of the Louisville, Cincinnati and Lexington Railroad in 1869 led to a division of the town into "Old" and "New Campbellsburg". The later was separately incorporated in 1876 but eventually expanded until the two merged into the present town.

Campbellsburg's central business district suffered catastrophic damage and was rebuilt after being destroyed by a F3 tornado on April 1, 1974.


We are very proud of our efforts to preserve our historical buildings and rural heritage.
