Tomb of Qutabuddin Aibak

Type: Monument - Tomb
Province: Punjab
District: Lahore
Period: Historic
Relative Chronology: 1206 - 1526 CE
Description: It is controversial whether the tomb was erected on his grave or not because in Tabqat-e-Akbari the word Qabr is mentioned and not the Mauza. However, in Tabqat-e-Chishti, it is mentioned that there was a marble tomb which was pulled down by Ranjit Singh. Previous trial trenches made at the site showed no indication of any structure over there.
