Byen er grundlagt af dansk-amerikanere, opkaldt efter Viborg i Jylland. Området blev befolket af danske indvandrere i 1860'erne, hvor de grundlagde en by kaldet Daneville. Da jernbanen kom i 1893, blev en bydannelse etableret tættere herved og den fik navnet Viborg og status som by den 25. august 1903.
Viborg er en af de ældste byer i Danmark og kan dateres helt tilbage til slutningen af 900-tallet.

Founded by Danish-Americans, the city is named after the Danish city of Viborg. The area was first settled by Danish migrants in the 1860s, founding a community known as Daneville. With the advent of the railway in 1893, a new settlement closer to the railway was created as Viborg. Viborg was incorporated as a city on August 25, 1903.
Viborg in Denmark is one of the oldest cities in Denmark and can be dated back to the end of the 900's
