Colonia Dublán is one of the two surviving Mormon Colonies in México (the other being Colonia Juárez) located in the state of Chihuahua. It is currently a very small town located just north of Nuevo Casas Grandes. It was founded by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the late 19th century as part of a large colonizing effort, instigated by Brigham Young, which dotted the map of western United States and northern México.
