Mirzapur Shahi Jame Masjid

Its a historical landmark of Bangladesh.
Atwari,Mirzapur, Panchagarh.

Mosque is a holy place for Muslims. And if this mosque is related to old history and tradition, then it is not in words. Similarly, a mosque located in Mirzapur of Atwari Upazila of Panchagarh is a witness of more than few hundreds years of history.

A combination of the aesthetic architectural works of the Mughal period and the skillful handwork and craftsmanship of the artisans of that time, this mosque will captivate anyone's mind.

Although built almost six hundred years ago, the three-domed Shahi Mosque of Mirzapur in Atwari Upazila of Panchagarh has stood the test of time.
The ancient terracotta and carved designs on the walls of the mosque make the mosque attractive. A lot of similarities can be found with the construction style of the Shahi Mosque and the mosque located in the Dhaka High Court premises.

Local and foreign tourists come every day to see the terracotta walls and fine craftsmanship. Many archeological monuments of the country have been lost due to natural and ancient reasons. Some artifacts made by the skillful hands of the artisans of yesteryear still stand as witnesses of the times through which the present generation finds lost days and old historical traditions.

This Shahi Mosque of Mirzapur has kept the history of hundreds of years. There are many differences among the locals about who exactly built this historic mosque.

According to some locals, a man from Mirzapur village named Malik Uddin built the mosque. Many others said that a man named Dost Mohammad completed the construction of the mosque. According to an obscure inscription in the mosque, historians believe that the Mirzapur Shahi Mosque was built during the reign of Mughal ruler Shah Alam Suja. An illegible Persian plaque above the middle door of the mosque suggests that the construction of the mosque was completed during the reign of Mughal Emperor Shah Alam. Besides, the apex of the dome of this mosque built in Mughal style and features is connected by a tapering belt. There is an opportunity to sit in two rows or two lines inside this mosque of 40 feet length and 25 feet width. So that the worshipers pray.

The terracotta, floral and vine carvings on the walls of the mosque easily attract visitors. Interestingly, one of the designs does not match the other. Besides, there are four minarets at the four corners of the mosque. Two other minarets are visible on either side of the doorway in the front wall, matching the dome. Each thin brick used in the wall is filled with special designs. The mosque is a mysterious monument of aesthetic craftsmanship and antiquity.

Local and foreign researchers are now researching to find the rich history of the lost days. The mosque is considered to be one of the mainstays of the district's tourism industry. Local worshipers said that several parts of the mosque were damaged in an earthquake many years ago. Then a man named Malik Uddin of this village brought artisans from Iran and renovated the mosque. Atwari upazila administration is currently supervising the mosque.

Archaeologists believe that the Mirzapur Shahi Mosque was built in 1656 based on the mosque's inscriptions. However, there is historical disagreement about who built the mosque. Some people think that a person from Mirzapur village named Malik Uddin built the mosque. Rumor has it that this Malik Uddin also founded Mirzapur village. Others believe that a person named Bondhu Mohammad completed the construction of the mosque. However, archaeologists believe that the mosque was built during the reign of Mughal ruler Shah Shuja.
