AL MEERAN MOSQUE

There were no moors in the Galle Fort during Portuguese  regime and later after the Fort came under Dutch they were permitted to occupy in there. Accordingly, they had the freedom of trading as they wished and to live in the Fort. A map prepared in 1770 AD bear evidence of a mosque on the site where the present mosque is situated.  In the decade 1890 this mosque was a single storied building with a roof of Sinhala tiles. The present white coloured mosque of lofty style was built in 1902 AD.
