The Gangsar is a well sunk by Guru Arjan Dev and much frequented by pilgrims as a substitute for the River Ganga. 200 meters east of the town is named after the well got sunk in 1599 by Guru Arjan who pronounced it to be as sacred as the River Ganga. The old Manji Sahib near the well was replaced by the present five storey building raised by the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee in 1975. The sanctum is at one end of a square hall on the ground floor. The other four storey with the dome on lop rise above the sanctum. Within the hall to the right side as one faces the sanctum is a platform dedicated to Guru Hargobind who, according to local tradition, sat here sometimes to address visiting sangat.

The holy bath at Gangsar Tank provides a cure for problems for mentally retarded and other psychic problems too.
