Gurudwara Guru Ke Mahal was the home of Sri Guru Ram Das Ji and his family. Sri Guru Ram Das Ji founded the city of Ramdaspur (modern day Amritsar) and began the excavation of the 'pool of nectar' called Amritsar. Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji was married as well as appointed as a Guru here. Sri Guru Hargobind Singh Ji lived here for some time and was also married here. This is also the birthplace of Baba Atal Rai and Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji.
The core of the Sikh religion is the sacred book Granth Sahib and their gurus. Guru ke Mahal, as the name denotes, is the dwelling places of these great gurus of the Sikhs. Originally raised as a humble hut by Guru Ram Das in 1573, it was modified and redecorated by Guru Hargobind and Arjun Dev.
Now this residential building has been shaped in the form of a shrine, with the Guru Granth Sahib placed in a hefty rectangular foyer. In addition to the every day services, Guru ka Langar and special divan are held on the first Sunday of a Bikrami month.
