The '''Government Palace of Chihuahua''' ('''Palacio de Gobierno de Chihuahua''') is a 19th-century building in the city of [[Chihuahua, Chihuahua|Chihuahua, Mexico]]. Located in the heart of the city, it is of special interest since it houses the executive offices of the governor of the state of Chihuahua and, until 2004, the state legislature met here. The building is a landmark in the city as it contains a shrine commemorating the execution of [[Miguel Hidalgo]], considered the [[Father of the Nation|Father of the Country]], who died at the hands of a Spanish firing squad on July 30, 1811. The ''Altar de la Patria'', or ''Altar of the Fatherland'' is located at the exact spot where Fr Hidalgo died.
