History
PredecessorArnim-Boitzenburg cabinet
SuccessorAuerswald cabinet

The Camphausen Cabinet formed the Prussian State Ministry appointed by King Frederick William IV from March 29 to June 20, 1848. This is a March government set up in the course of the March Revolution, which came into power with the aim of liberal reforms and the creation of a constitution for Prussia. With her mediating course, she came into conflict with both the King and the Prussian National Assembly and had to resign after the failed storming of the armory in Berlin. The ministers continued their work until the Auerswald cabinet was formed on June 25, 1848.[1]
