Gurdwara Sri Lachi Ber Sahib

In 1577, Sri Guru Arjan Sahib Ji used to sit here under the Lachi Ber tree and supervise the excavation of the sarovar and building of Sri Harmandir Sahib. Bhai Shalo Ji, a devout Sikh of Guru Arjan also used to participate in the voluntary excavation work.

The Brave Warriors Bhai Sukha Singh and Bhai Mehtab Singh tied their horses with this very tree in 1740 while entering Sri Harmandir Sahib to behead Massa Rangar, a fanatic mughal. Massa Rangar desecrated Sri Harmandir Sahib by converting it into a dancing hall and pleasure palace.
