This Gurdwara is situated at a distance of 5 km south east of Barnala City in village Pharwahi.

Gurdwara Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Pharwahi is also known as Gurdwara Sri Patshahi Nauvin.

Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji visited this place in 1665 during his journey of Malwa region. Guru Tegh Bahadur arrived from village Kattu. Guru Ji held a diwan, performing kirtan and stayed here for one night.

The next Morning, when Guru Ji was about to leave the village, the villagers asked Guru Ji to leave one of his Sikhs behind to help teach them about Sikhi.

Guru Tegh Bahadur said that such a person would arise from the village itself. The villagers believe that Bhai Sobha Singh, who constructed the Gurdwara in 1750 and preached Sikhi, was the devoted person about whom Guru Ji had foreseen.
