Albert (known as Albert-Aliwal from 1920 to 1924 and Albert-Colesberg from 1938 to 1948) was a constituency in the Cape Province of South Africa, which existed from 1910 to 1948. Named after the district of Albert, the seat initially covered a rural area along the Cape’s northeastern frontier, centred on the town of Burgersdorp. Throughout its existence it elected one member to the House of Assembly and one to the Cape Provincial Council.
