Old Jama Masjid (ग़ंटा मस्जिद / Old Jama Masjid) in Purani Chhawani, Gwalior West, is a mosque of local significance serving the Muslim community in that western part of Gwalior. Publicly available data about its founding date, founder, or detailed architectural history is scarce; it is not listed in major heritage or historical archives (as of sources checked). The mosque is, however, recognized locally (in apps/directories) for its role as a congregational space for daily prayer, Jum‘ah (Friday prayers), and as a landmark for the Purani Chhawani neighborhood. Its location on the Agra-Mumbai Highway gives it visibility and access, making it well known to residents and travelers alike. According to local directory listings like AkhandApp, it has good user ratings, which suggests an active worshipping community and frequent visitation.
