Campeaux (French pronunciation: [kɑ̃po]) was once a small town, known as a commune, in northwestern France. It was located in the Calvados area, which is a department (like a county) within the Normandy region.

On January 1, 2016, Campeaux joined with other nearby communes to form a larger new commune called Souleuvre-en-Bocage. This means Campeaux is no longer a separate commune on its own.
