Atiya Mosque


Constructed in 1609 A.D. by Sayyed Khan Pani, son of Bayazid Khan Pani, the mosque (21m x 12.19m) consists of a single domed square prayer chamber fronted by a verandah covered over by 3 domes. Its cornice is deeply curved and wall surface is relieved with terracotta ornamental panels showing a blending of Mughal and pre-Mughal architectural traits.

It can be approached from the zero point of Tangail town, along the Dhaka-Jamuna Setu, by any means of motorized vehicle.
