The Marlborough Congregational Church is a historic Congregational Church at 35 South Main Street in Marlborough, Connecticut. It is a single-story wood frame structure, built in the Greek Revival style in 1842. Its main facade has a recessed central area, in which a wide double door provides entrance to the building. This is set behind a pair of fluted Doric columns, and the recess is framed by pilasters at either end, as are the corners of the building. The pilasters and pillars support a simple entablature that extends along the sides of the building, above which is a fully pedimented gable pediment. A three-stage square tower rises above the entrance, the upper two stages with louvered centers and corner pilasters, with a shallow dome and weathervane at the top. In addition to hosting religious services, the building has been the site of community meetings and social events.

The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
