Cheraman Juma Masjid:
This mosque in Kodungalloor resembles a Hindu temple in appearance. It was earlier made of wood. Built in 629 A.D., this is the first mosque in India where Juma prayers were started and is a combination of Arab and Kerala styles of architecture. Recent changes have been made and it now has concrete minarets. The interiors remain wooden though with a Kerala oil lamp right in the centre. This lamp is of great significance to people of all religions. Some of them bring oil for the lamp on the auspicious occasion of major family events.?
The mosque was the outcome of the desire of former Kerala ruler, Cheraman Perumal.
