Muchundi Mosque, 13th-century mosque in Kuttichira, India

Located on a raised plinth, Muchundi Mosque displays traditional Kerala architecture with intricate wooden carvings and decorated gables on its double-tiered roof structure.

A granite inscription from the 13th century details an endowment made by the Zamorin of Calicut, demonstrating early support from Hindu rulers to Muslim institutions.

The mosque incorporates regional architectural elements found in Hindu temples, including decorated pillars, ventilators, and large water tanks within its Islamic design.

The mosque stands 1.5 kilometers from Kozhikode Railway Station, making it accessible by local transportation methods such as auto-rickshaws and taxis.

The stone slab inscription contains text in both Old Malayalam Vattezhuthu script and Arabic, documenting land assignments and provisions for mosque operations.
