Frankburg is a former community founded by Latter-day Saint (LDS) settlers, located in Foothills County, Alberta. The community was located 12 km east of High River.[1]

Very little remains of this settlement founded by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints other than the Frankburg Cemetery. Christopher Frank, an early postmaster, gave the community his last name.[2]
