This is a list of the tallest buildings in Alberta that ranks skyscrapers and high-rise buildings in the province of Alberta, Canada, by height.

Russell Haig Tower located in Lethbridge. The tallest building in the province is the 66-storey, tall, Stantec Tower located in Edmonton.

Alberta's history of skyscrapers began with the Grain Exchange Building (1910) in Calgary, and the Tegler Building (1911) in Edmonton.

Until late 2013, the presence of aircraft taking off and landing at the Edmonton City Centre Airport restricted any building from reaching an elevation higher than above mean sea level, about above downtown.
