Sri Digambar Jain Lal Mandir (Śrī Digambar Jain Lāl Mandir) is the oldest and best-known Jain temple in Old Delhi, India. It is directly across from the Red Fort in the historical Chandni Chowk area.

The temple is known for an avian veterinary hospital, called the Jain Birds Hospital, in a second building behind the main temple.

Located just opposite the massive Red Fort at the intersection of Netaji Subhas Marg and Chandni Chowk, Digambar Jain Temple is the oldest Jain temple in the capital. According to Jain scholar Balbhadra Jain's compendium of Digambar Jain shrines in India, it was built in 1656.
