Campbell is one of the suburbs of Canberra, Australia. This suburb is located to the south-east of the Canberra Central Business District, at the foothills of Mount Ainslie. Campbell is also neighbouring the Mount Pleasant Nature Reserve in its south-eastern part and has close to 5,000 people.

Campbell gets its name from Robert Campbell, who used to own Duntroon station, which you can still see today. In fact, many of the buildings erected by him and his family are still around today. For instance, you can visit Blundell’s Cottage, Reid or St. John the Baptist Church. The current Government House and Duntroon House are also built by the Campbells.

Apart from that, Campbell has plenty of significant memorials and institutions. Here is where you can see the Australian War Memorial, Duntroon, The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation Corporate Headquarters or the Royal Military College. The Australian Defence Force Academy is also here, but Campbell has a High school, a Primary school and an infant school too.

With an interesting, volcanic landscape, the grey quartz andesite of Campbell can interest any geologist or passionate hiker. Walking the streets of Campbell provides other entertainment, as there are plenty of shops and cafés, as well as a great view of Mount Ainslie.
