Hinduism is a minority religion practised by 0.6% of the population of Switzerland.[1] Approximately 90% of Hindu adherents are foreign-born,[2] and about a third of them have the status of refugee or asylum seeker. The Sri Sivasubramaniar Temple, located in the Sihl Valley in Adliswil, is the most famous and oldest Hindu temple in Switzerland,[3] the Arulmihu Sivan Temple located in Glattbrugg is dedicated to Shiva,[4] and the latest foundation is the Sri Vishnu Thurkkai Amman Temple in Dürnten in 2010.[5][6]
