Tipu Sultan Mosque, Mosque in Dharamtalla Street, Kolkata, India
The Tipu Sultan Mosque features sixteen domes, four minarets, and intricately carved facades painted in green tones across its exterior structure.
Prince Ghulam Mohammed constructed this religious building in 1842 using personal funds to commemorate his father, Tipu Sultan of Mysore Kingdom.
The mosque functions as a central gathering place for Islamic festivals while maintaining an open-door policy for visitors of all religious backgrounds.
The religious complex accommodates 1000 worshippers and requires visitors to remove shoes and dress modestly before entering the prayer halls.
During the 1980s, structural repairs became necessary after the Kolkata Metro construction caused damage to the mosque's foundation and architecture.
