Sher Shah Suri Masjid, Historical mosque in Patna, India.
The central dome of Sher Shah Suri Masjid rises above four smaller domes, creating a symmetrical structure built entirely from local stone materials.
The construction of this mosque occurred between 1540 and 1545 under the direction of Sher Shah Suri during his reign over northern India.
The mosque contains inscriptions and decorative motifs featuring Quranic verses, reflecting the Indo-Islamic architectural traditions of sixteenth-century Bihar.
The religious site opens daily for prayers and welcomes visitors throughout the year, with direct access from central Patna transportation hubs.
From specific viewing angles, the mosque creates an optical effect where only three of its five domes remain visible to observers.
