PATTI SAHIB

It is also called Gurdwara Maulvi Patti, lies midway between Gurdwara Janam Asthan and Gurdwara Bal Lila. It is along the road leading from Janam Asthan to the railway station. Patti means a wooden table on which young scholars practise writing. Hence the name of the shrine which represents the village school attended by Guru Nanak Dev. It is also said that young Nanak surprised his teacher by composing and reciting an acrostic, called Patti, and that is why the shrine is called Patti Sahib or Maulvi Patti. The Gurdwara consists only of the sanctum in a small square domed room.
