Zamzama was severely damaged due to its use in the aforementioned wars
and it had to be brought back to Lahore, unfit for any further use. It
was placed outside Delhi Gate, Lahore, where it remained until 1860.
When in 1864, Maulawi Nur Ahmad Chishti compiled the TahqiqatiChishti,
he found it standing in the Baradari of the garden of Wazir Khan, behind
the Lahore Museum. In 1870, it found a new asylum at the entrance of
the Lahore Museum, then located in the Tollinton Market. It was placed
in this position on the occasion of the Duke of Edinburgh’s visit to Lahore
in 1870. When the present building of the museum was constructed it was
removed further west and placed opposite the University Hall. Repaired
in 1977, the cannon now rests on Mall Road (Shahrah-e-Quaid-e-Azam) with
Pharmacy Department, University of the Punjab on one side, and National
College of Arts (NCA) and Lahore Museum on the other.
