Moorish Mosque, Kapurthala, Islamic temple in Kapurthala, India
The Moorish Mosque features light red exterior walls with green accents on doors and windows, complemented by a marble-paved interior courtyard.
French architect M. Manteaux completed the construction of this religious building in 1930, with a total cost of 600,000 rupees.
The mosque, commissioned by Maharajah Jagatjit Singh, reflects the ruler's commitment to his Muslim subjects who constituted 60 percent of Kapurthala's population.
Located 2 kilometers from central Kapurthala, the mosque connects to major cities through the Jalandhar-Ferozpur railway line and nearby Raja Sani Airport.
The structure departs from traditional Indian mosque architecture by excluding external domes, incorporating instead a single prominent tower on one side.
