Château de Kerampuilh stands in Carhaix-Plouguer (Finistère), in the Bretagne region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: third quarter of the 18th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

Less than a kilometre from the centre of Carhaix-Plouguer, the Château de Kerampuilh stands with its central block and two wings, built around 1760 for a counsellor of the Parliament of Brittany. The building has had several lives, family home then hospice, before a restoration completed in 2021 turned it into regional offices. There are no period interiors to see, these were lost when it became a hospice, but the exterior architecture and the surrounding park, familiar to visitors of the Vieilles Charrues festival, can be seen.
