The shrine is located within the cluster of historic gurdwaras in Anandpur Sahib, close to Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib. Visitors can attend prayers and kirtan, partake in langar in the community kitchen hall, view historic displays, and explore the peaceful courtyard and surrounding religious structures.

Gurdwara Fatehgarh Sahib at Anandpur Sahib commemorates the victory (Fateh) of Guru Gobind Singh Ji and his Sikh forces over the combined armies of Mughal forces and hill rajas in the Battle of Anandpur around 1700-1701. The site marks the success of the Sikhs in defending Anandpur Sahib, and the gurdwara was later established to preserve the memory of this event.

The gurdwara is a revered Sikh pilgrimage site and an integral part of the sacred circuit of Anandpur Sahib, the birthplace of the Khalsa. It symbolizes the Sikh principle of victory of righteousness and is visited by devotees year-round, especially during Hola Mohalla when Anandpur Sahib hosts large religious gatherings.
