The Sisganj Gurdwara in the Old City of Delhi is one of the most revered Sikh pilgrimage centers in India. The Gurdwara (Sikh temple) holds a special place in the heart of the Sikh community as it is believed to be the place of martyrdom of Tegh Bahadur (1621–1675), the ninth Sikh Guru. It is prominently located on Chandni Chowk, the main street of Old Delhi. Across from the gurudwara is a square with a blue-and-white colonial-era fountain, now converted into a Sikh temple attached to the gurudwara. Popularly called Bhai Mati Das Chowk (Bhai Mati Das Chowk), it is the place of martyrdom of three followers of the Guru. Close to these two holy places, at the same intersection, is the Bhai Mati Das Museum, which is the subject of this essay.

A painting museum of Sikhism, named after Bhai Mati Das ji who sacrificed his life along with his two younger brothers and Shree Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib Ji to save the Hinduism and Sikhism from Mughal Empire.

This museum has got the paintings representing the Great Sikh History.

Museum is well maintained and just next to the Holy Martyrdom place at Chandni chowk. Bhai Mati Das Niwas is also here.

Bhai Mati Das Chowk is situated on the adjoining point of Zorabar Singh Marg with Main Market Chandni Chowk Delhi. A historical chowk in memory of Bhai Mati Das is very near to Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib. A very big chowk in the Asia's biggest Market Chandni Chowk Delhi. Previously there is Kotwali Police Station which is now shifted to other place. 1 km away from Red Fort and 1 km away from Fatehpuei and also 1 km away from Delhi Main Railway Station.

Bhai Mati Das Chowk, just in front of Sisganj Gurudwara in Chandni Chowk area, has a memorial of Bhai Mati Das who was an aide of Guru Tegh Bahadur.
Bhai Mati Das, Bhai Dayala, and Bhai Sati Das were executed at a kotwali (police-station) in the Chandni Chowk  under the express orders of Emperor Aurangzeb just before the martyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur.
Bhai Mati Das, the first to be martyred, was asked if he had any final wishes. He replied that he desired to be facing towards the guru on his execution.

It is a sacred place for Sikh religious history - as here only Bhai Mati Das (companion of 9th Sikh guru Guru Tegh Bahadur ji) was executed by the orders of Aurangzeb. Bhai Sati Das and Bhai Dayala were too executed here.
It is a divine plane at the junction point. People stop and pray here.
The nearest metro station is Chandni Chowk.

It's a holy place for the Sikh community.

Bhai Mati Das (Punjabi: ਭਾਈ ਮਤੀ ਦਾਸ; died 1675) along with his younger brother Bhai Sati Das were martyrsof early Sikh history. Bhai Mati Das, Bhai Dayala, and Bhai Sati Das were all executed at kotwali (police-station) in the Chandni Chowk area of Delhi, under the express orders of emperor Aurangzeb just before the martyrdom of Guru Tegh Bahadur. Bhai Mati Das was executed by being bound between two pillars and cut into two.
Bhai Mati Das is regarded as a great martyr by the Sikh.  The date of his martyrdom, is celebrated in certain parts of South Asia as a public holiday. Bhai Mati Das' martydom finds explicit mention in the daily supplication prayers of Ardas.

The Bhai Mati Das Sati Das Museum was built in honor of Bhai Mati Das and Bhai Sati Das in Delhi opposite Gurudwara Sis Ganj Sahib, Chandni Chowk the spot where they were martyred

This is the place where Bhai Mati Das, Bhai Sati Das and Bhai Dayala Das were brutally Martyred by the Mughal Muslims on 9th of November 1675 (Two days before the martyrdom of Guru Teg Bahadur Ji).
This holy place is situated just opposite to Gurudwara Sisganj Sahib.
