Fatehpuri Masjid, Mughal mosque in Chandni Chowk, India

The Fatehpuri Masjid features red sandstone construction with rows of pillars on both sides and a white marble water pool in its courtyard.

Built in 1650 by Fatehpuri Begum, wife of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, the mosque was temporarily auctioned after the 1857 Indian Rebellion.

The mosque serves as a center for Islamic worship and education, maintaining daily prayer services and religious gatherings throughout the year.

Located at the western end of Chandni Chowk, the mosque opens its doors to visitors outside prayer times and requires modest dress.

The British authorities sold this mosque for 19,000 rupees to Lala Chunnamal, whose descendants still reside in the Chunnamal Haveli.
