Details

History
The mosque was first discovered in the Indian subcontinent during the British rule. Later, after cleaning the place and renovating the mosque, the locals started using it. The exact date of the construction of the mosque is not known as no inscription was found at the time of its discovery. However, according to legend, a Dilwar Khan built the mosque. However, a spot on the top of the main door of the mosque suggests that the name and construction of the mosque were most likely placed there, although it was not found.

Infrastructure

The Laldighi Mosque is built entirely on an altar. The height of the altar or stage is 1 meter. Half of the one-meter altar covers the mosque and the other half is thought to have been used for the call to prayer. There is a large entrance in front of the mosque. There is a staircase from the part of the mosque to the other side of the altar. The mosque was built using bricks and mortar. Nearby is a small pond with a ghat.

The mosque has a total of nine domes with a length of 9.45 meters on each side. The mosque has a total of 9 entrances, three each on the north, east and south sides. The entrance in the middle of each wall is slightly larger than the other two. The west wall of the mosque has three arches, of which the central arch is larger than the other two.
