Delhi's holiest Sikh temple, where the ninth Guru, Teg Bahadur, was beheaded for refusing to convert to Islam.

The most sacred Sikh temple of Delhi, it is here that the ninth Guru, Teg Bahadur, was beheaded. Refusing to convert to Islam, Teg Bahadur was put to death in 1675 on the orders of the emperor Aurangzeb. In 1783 the military chief Baghel Singh negotiated with the emperor Shah Alam II a grant to build gurudwaras on all Sikh historical sites in Delhi. He had the gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib built in 8 months. Then the site returns to the Muslims until the English decide in favor of the Sikh community which makes raise a new temple in 1930.
