Gurdwara Bhai Joga Singh Hoshiarpur is a Historic Sikh Gurdwara situated in Hoshiarpur, near the clock tower in Mohalla Shekhon.

This Gurdwara is dedicated to Bhai Joga Singh, a Sikh youth from Peshawar, who had lived in the presence of Guru Gobind Singh (1666 - 1708) at Anandpur for many years, serving him with devotion.

The foundation of the gurdwara was laid in 1966 and in 2008 a proper building was raised. Amrik Singh found the exact location of the present gurdwara, and started the sewa.

Bhai Joga Singh's parents, eager to see him married, arrived at Anandpur to escort him back home in Peshawar. Guru Gobind Singh permitted Bhai Joga Singh to depart, saying that he must return at once when recalled.

Bhai Joga Singh was in the midst of his nuptials and had completed only two of the customary four circumambulations when a Sikh delivered the Guru's letter of recall. Bhai Joga Singh left the ceremony midway and, despite the protestations and importunities of his relations, immediately set out for Anandpur. The elation aroused in him by his prompt compliance with Guru's summons gradually turned into a sense of selfesteem and conceit.
