In news- The renovation work of Cheraman Juma Masjid, the oldest mosque in the Indian subcontinent, is in the final stages. 

About the mosque-

  • The mosque located in Methala, near Kodungallur, Thrissur District, Kerala was built in 629CE.
  • It was built by Malik Deenar, on the orders of the successor of Cheraman Perumal, the Chera King of modern-day Kerala. 
  • The mosque was constructed in Kerala style with hanging lamps. 
  • The mosque was completely destroyed by the Portuguese in 1504 when Lopo Soares de Albergaria attacked the port of Kodungallur. 
  • In 1984, to organise prayers at the mosque, concrete structures – mainly corridor and hall were built.
  • To bring back the heritage structure, the Muziris Heritage Project took up the task of renovating the Cheraman Juma Masjid.
