Located near Khanderao Market, Gurudwara Nanakwadi Sahib was built almost five centuries ago to commemorate the place where Guru Nanak once stayed for a period of time.
It was during 1515-1517, on his preaching tour of Western India, that Guru Nanak Devji, the first Sikh Guru, along with his companion Shri Mardanaji, halted here. After arriving from Bharuch, Guru Nanak Devji spent considerable time here before continuing his journey to Rajasthan.
Believed to have been constructed in 1517, the Gurudwara houses a small well where it is said Guru Nanak Devji bathed. Since its inception, daily prayers have been faithfully conducted here without interruption.
Initially just a small room, the Gurudwara has expanded over the years into the structure we see today. It holds significant reverence among the city’s residents and has served as a focal point of faith for over 500 years, a role it continues to fulfill to this day.
