Lohagor Moth

Lohagor Moth, Religious monument in Balia Union, Bangladesh

Lohagor Moth is a religious complex comprising three remaining structures of varying heights, with the tallest featuring ornate decorations and pagoda-style elements in its upper portion. The buildings display a construction style that blends local and religious design elements together.

The site traces back several centuries, and its name derives from two brothers who once ruled the area and were documented for their cruel acts. The name preserves the memory of this early period in regional history.

The name Lohagor combines the names of two zamindars, Louh and Gohor, who ruled the area; the village and the math share this name. The math was built as a marker of the zamindars' residence on the bank of the Dakatia River and of their wealth, with a gold finial once placed on its peak. Today it is a popular visitor site, with people arriving daily from distant places.

The site is most easily reached by taking local buses from Chandpur District to Faridganj at Lohagarh, and multiple accommodation options are available in Chandpur. Visitors should consult local guides or community representatives to learn more about current access and visiting conditions.

The tallest of the three surviving towers has several holes near its top where parakeets nest. Villagers long avoided the towers, believing evil spirits lived in them, so the buildings stood hidden in jungle for years. The birds can be seen flying in and out of the holes.
