Guru Tegh Bahadur Gurdwara -History
Sikhs have been settling in Leicester since the end of the Second World War. The opening of the Sikh Gurdwarasin Leicester, in 1960, reflects the growth of the city’s Sikh population. By 2011, the Sikh population of the city had risen to 14,457, representing 4.4% of the city’s population (compared to 0.8% nationally). This Sikh presence continues to contribute very significantly to the social, political and religious life of the city and is especially evident at the annual Vaisakhi celebrations, attracting thousands of people from across Leicester and the Midlands, to a march through the streets of the city centre.
