Sri Sivasubramaniar Temple

In the 1990s, an interreligious society was established in the canton of Zürich to support the foundation of a centre for spiritual and cultural care of Tamil people in Switzerland, as well as to preserve and maintain the Tamil culture of the approximatively 30–35,000 (around 20,000 in the canton of Zürich) Tamil people of Sri Lankan origin living in Switzerland.

So, the Sri Sivasubraminar Temple in Adliswil was founded in 1994 as a non-profit foundation.

[1] The Temple is located in a former factory building on the shores of the Sihl river in the industrial area of the municipality of Adliswil.

In August, approximately 3,000 to 4,000 people take part in public procession of Lord Murugan.

[1] Additional temple festivals are celebrated, too: Maha Shivaratri, Deepavali, Vinayaka Chathurthi, Navratri/Vijayadashami and Iyappa Swamy.
