Summary
DescriptionTerracotta decorated mihrabs of Mosque at Kheraul at Murshidabad district in West Bengal.jpg |
English: This brick-built Mosque at Kheraul alias Kherur with a single domed square prayer chamber and a triple domed verandah on the front with four minarets at four corners was erected by Rafa't Khan in 1495 AD during the reign of Alaud-Din Husain Shah on the basis of two inscriptions on the mosque. The hemispherical dome of the main prayer chamber fell down in the earthquake of 1897.
The mosque is constructed entirely of brick without any stone facing. This mosque at Kheraul is very unique as because it has terracotta decorations on its wall. Only a handful mosques have such decorations on their walls and they predate the famous terracotta temples of Bengal which were constructed between 17th to 19th century.
