Goaldi Mosque

It was built by Mulla Hizabar Akbar Khan during the reign of Sultan Alauddin Husain Shah of Bengal at a place called Goaldi - half a mile northeast of Panam village in Sonargaon.

A single dome caps the mosque; engaged ribbed turrets define the four corners; and the cornice is gently sloped.

The east facade has three arched openings, embellished on either sides with rectangular panels of delicate relief work in the form of a niche with an ornamental hanging lamp motif.

It is decorated with beautiful, intricate patterns composed of an ornamental hanging lamp motif.

The two flanking mihrabs are decorated in similar fashion but instead of black basalt they are made of brick and fine terra cotta work.
