Gurudwara Gurusar Satlani Ji
Amritsar  ·  Punjab

Gurudwara Gurusar Satlani, located 1.5 km south of the railway station named after it, lies within the revenue limits of Hoshiarnagar village in Amritsar district, Punjab. This shrine marks the place where Guru Hargobind (1595-1644) halted for a night near a pond while traveling from Lahore to Amritsar.

According to local tradition, Guru Gobind Singh (1666-1708) appointed one of his Sikhs, Bulaka Singh, as the custodian of this shrine. During the first half of the nineteenth century, Sikh rulers and chiefs generously endowed the shrine. In 1925, the management of the Gurdwara, along with its vast farmlands, was transferred to the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee.

In 1974, Sant Marigal Singh was entrusted with its renovation and reconstruction. The main hall is situated on the ground floor of the six-storey building. The water of the old pond, now properly lined and used as a sarovar, is believed to have medicinal properties that can cure skin diseases. An annual fair, which attracts large crowds, is held on the full moon day of Bhadori (August-September).
