Premamati Mosque

The Premamati Mosque is a mosque in Hyderabad, India.

History
The mosque was built in the 17th century during the reign of Abdullah Qutb Shah. It is thought to have been commissioned by Premamati, and has remained incomplete due to her death in 1662.

Description
The mosque is built at the western end of a square terrace.

The facade contains five entrance arches, as is typical of Qutb Shahi mosques. The arches are supported by piers, which have a band of mouldings at the top. This is reminiscent of Hindu temples, such as the Ramappa Temple. The elaborately carved chajjas above the arches also display Hindu influences.

The facade is flanked by two semi-decagonal minarets, which are incomplete.

The roof consists of ten flat domes which are not visible from below.

The mosque is incomplete as there is no parapet wall and no kiosks above the minarets.
