Satoir Mosque is situated at Satoir bazar of Boalmari Thana. It was at Madhukhali Thana, and just visited the Deul of Mathurapur. Initially interested to visit the mosque, cause only way to reach there using local bus and it will take around 1-2 hours.
It was actually 700 years of old mosque, but old one was totally renovated. There are lots of myth available using the mosque.
1) This mosque was built within one day by the order of Allah.
2) The four pillars of the mosque used to laugh and cry sometimes (The reason is the air passing, and it just make a different tone).
3) If you take the brick of the mosque at your house, no insect will come at our house.

প্রায় ৭০০ বছর পূর্বে এই মসজিদটি নির্মাণ করা হলেও পুরাতন মসজিদটিকে পুরোপুরি মেরামত করা হয়েছে। মসজিদটিকে ঘিরে প্রচুর লোককাহিনী রয়েছে যেমনঃ
১। একদিনেই এই মসজিদটি আল্লাহর হুকুমে নির্মাণ করা হয়।
২। মসজিদের চারটি পিলার একসময় হাসত এবং কাঁদত (প্রকৃতপক্ষে বায়ু চলাচলের কারনে ভিন্ন ধরনের শব্দের সৃষ্টি হত)।
৩। মসজিদের ইট আপনার ঘরে নিয়ে গেলে আপনার ঘরে কোন পোকামাকড় প্রবেশ করবে না।

Sonargaon contains quite a number of Archaeological evidences, helping the scholars to reconstruct the Medieval History of Sonargaon area of Bangladesh. Goaldi Mosque, one of the very few surviving medieval monuments in the city of Sonargaon. About 6 km north-west of the little township of Panam, near Sonargaon in Narayanganj district, there are two such precariously surviving old single-domed mosques in the sequestered hamlet of Goaldi, virtually hidden behind thick bamboo brakes and clusters of mango and jackfruit tree groves.
Built in 1519, the graceful, single-domed Goaldi Mosque is the most impressive of the few extant monuments of the old capital city, and a good example of pre-Mughal architecture. This mosque is one of the few remnants from the Sultanate period in Sonargaon, during the reign of Sultan Hussain Shah in 925 Hijri (1519 AD). It was built by Mulla Hizabar Akbar Khan in the early 16th century, during the reign of Alauddin Husain Shah at a place called Goaldi - half a mile northeast of Panam village in Sonargaon. Sonargaon was the administrative center of medieval Muslim rulers of East Bengal. It became as the capital of Bengal during Isa Khan's ruling. The area falls under present-day Narayanganj District, Bangladesh. This mosque is more elegant and ornate in comparison to the earlier Sultanate mosques at Bagerhat.
There are some ornamental black stone pillars inside the prayer hall for the support of the roof. Corresponding to the three arched doorways on the east there are three richly decorated mihrabs on the west wall, of which the central one is bigger and beautifully embellished with curved floral and arabesque relief on dark black stone, but the flanking side mihrabs are ornamented with delicate terracotta floral and geometric patterns. The central stone mihrab is framed within an arched panel with an expanded sunflower motif in the centre. Below that the spandrels of the multi-cusped arch of the mihrab are decorated within a rectangular frame. The engrailed arched recess is carried on stunted octagonal pillars faceted at stages. Four round-banded turrets at the outer corners rise up to the curvilinear cornice.
