Templo de San Carlos Borromeo de Aldama, Chihuahua, Baroque temple in Aldama, Mexico.

The temple exhibits stone-carved jambs surrounding a semicircular arch entrance, topped by a cornice featuring two choir windows and detailed architectural elements.

The construction of the temple dates back to 1783 when Commander General Felipe de Neve ordered its reconstruction following attacks by Apache groups.

The temple remains a central gathering point for religious ceremonies, serving the community of Aldama through traditional Catholic services and celebrations.

The temple stands at the intersection of 7th and Gutierrez streets in Aldama, maintaining regular services despite ongoing restoration work.

The structure absorbed the nearby Santa Ana de Chinarras mission in 1767, transforming from San Jeronimo mission into San Carlos Borromeo temple.
