Warburg is a village in central Alberta, Canada. It is approximately 58 km (36 mi) west of Leduc on Highway 39. The village is named for Varberg Fortress in Sweden. The fortress's name was once spelled Warberg in English, but a spelling error resulted in the name Warburg.[4][self-published source?]
