Limburg is a province of Belgium. It lies in Flanders. It is the eastermost Flemish province. It has common borders with the Netherlands, and the Belgian provinces of Liège, Flemish Brabant and Antwerp. Its capital is Hasselt. People officially speak Dutch there.

Limburg's name comes from the fortified castle town known as Limbourg, located on the river Vesdre in the Ardennes. This is now the Walloon province of Liège.

Limburg is crossed by the Albert Canal. It has historically been an important coal-mining area.
