Camp Springs is an unincorporated community in rural Campbell County, Kentucky, United States, ten miles southeast of Cincinnati, Ohio. During the mid 1800's, the area was settled by German immigrants from the Rhine River wine districts. [1]

[edit] History

A small group of immigrants from the Rhine River wine district in Germany settled in rural Campbell County and established farms and vineyards. The immigrants constructed numerous buildings with stone masonry using unusual architectural features that give the area an unique style. [1] Many of these local properties were added to the United States National Register of Historic Places in 1983. [2]
