Nine Dome Mosque, Medieval mosque in Bagerhat District, Bangladesh

The Nine Dome Mosque features thick walls with three arched openings on each side and nine independent square sections covered by large domes.

Khan Jahan Ali constructed this religious structure during the 15th century Bengal Sultanate period as part of the larger Mosque City of Bagerhat.

The mosque incorporates regional architectural elements with Islamic design principles, displaying terracotta decorations on archways, mihrabs, corner towers, and cornices.

Located on the western bank of Thakurdighi, the mosque stands 320 kilometers from Dhaka and maintains protection under the Department of Archaeology, Bangladesh.

The interior space divides into nine equal sections through stone pillars with stepped square pedestals, supporting individual inverted cup-shaped domes above each area.
