Conjux is a commune in the Savoie department in the Rhône-Alpes region in south-eastern France. The smallest commune in the region of Chautagne at 175 ha, it extends for 5 km along the northwestern coastline of Lac du Bourget. The name of the commune is believed to be derived, via the form 'Congieux', from late Latin 'Congiacum', meaning the 'domain of Congius', and is not related to the Latin homonym, 'conjux' (spouse).

Fishing was traditionally the mainstay of the village, but today there remain only two professional fishermen based in the commune. The Port of Conjux is now largely used for recreational boating and amateur fishing. Economic activity is largely confined to small businesses and salaried work in nearby cities such as Aix-les-Bains and Chambery.

The chapel Saint-Crépin-et-Crépinien at Conjux dates in part from the 15th century. It was badly damaged in an earthquake in 1826, and restored in several stages (1890, 1938 and 1978).
