Nice medieval times place ...Stone work and architecture is fabulous

This is an active mosque, located between a kabristan. This is a small masjid with beautiful architecture. A stepwell which is 1 storey deep is also located at few steps. This masjid is near the Ahmednagar fort.

This masjid is very old and all construction is in stone only, stil in very good shape. It is known that masjid was constructed by collecting damdi (smallest coin in currency can be 40th of rupee). It is a architectural marvel for stone carving and civil engineering marvel for stone slab. This masjid is near ahmednagar fort. Masjid placed under military area of ahmednagar. Must visit this masjid to see beutiful stone construction.

Damdi Masjid, a historical place in Ahmednagar, built in 1568 during the Ahmednagar Sultanate. Its elegant architecture with pointed arches, slender minarets, and a trefoil-patterned parapet wall reflects the craftsmanship of its time. Legend has it that the mosque was constructed with contributions from the local Fakirs and laborers, adding a unique community touch. The interior is divided into six bays, showcasing thoughtful design. A must-visit monument of national importance. However, there's a need for better infrastructure in the surrounding area, which would further enhance the experience for visitors and help preserve this cultural treasure.

Historical monument, classic for architectural design and fine stone work. Lotus flowers and symbols of old kings, are equally important.

Damdi Masjid in Ahmednagar is one of the most underrated historical monuments in India. I have visited the wonderful structure over the years and I can tell you it’s one of the most striking pieces of historical Architecture in India. There are conflicting reports about the exact date of its origin some mention 1567 or 1568. According to some information available the mosque was built by a noble called Sahir Khan but it’s certain that the mosque was most likely build under the rule of female Muslim Queen Chand Bibi who ruled Ahmednagar at the time. The word Damdi means the lowest denominated coin and according to legends the beautiful mosque was built by contribution of Damdi or coins by the Sufi Fakirs and laborers of Ahmednagar. The Mosque was originally a Shia mosque but later became a Sunni Mosque after the victory of Mughals over the Ahmednagar Daccani Kings. Damdi mosque is situated on the way of Burahan Nagar, 1 Km away from the fort. The small masonry Mosque is famous for its elaborate carving and calligraphy. The carving especially on the arch and minarets are very attractive. The measurement of well-dressed stone in which the ceiling is built coincides with those of the floor. A white marble on which some letters are engraved is placed in the center of mosque. Inscriptions and Lotus flowers are also found on various stones of the mosque.

This is historical place and very peaceful and natural. You can do pray here .

The Asia oldest Masjid.. beautiful stone art i ever seen😍😲

Its a beautiful archeological structureand it need more attention

A historical monument, a mosque with a beautiful and perfect stone carving out of black stone. If you are a history lover and love to visit places with a story, you can certainly visit this place. Early morning is the best time to visit since sunlight falls from opposite direction and it's good time for photography. Notice the flat ceiling from inside that has two-way arrow signs on it. I am still trying to find out something more about this specific phenomenon. Will keep posted on any update.

A beautiful, old architecture presenting a slice from the past of Ahmednagar and Mughal period. The origin of the name of the masjid itself is quite interesting. A neglected place. Not a touristy place to be on the check list agenda. Worth visiting to experience the time in which it has been constructed.

visited the Damadi Masjid during my trip to Ahmednagar and was blown away by its beauty. The attention to detail in the architecture is truly remarkable. It's a great place to learn more about the local history and culture, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
