Excerpt:
There will be an Islamic prayer house in Nenzing, Vorarlberg with an area of 650 square metres but without a dome or a minaret.
The "Vorarlberger Nachrichten" newspaper reported the news today (Fri), adding Nenzing municipality had agreed to sell a 1,500-square-metre plot of land to the Turkish-Islamic Cultural Association (ATIB) as the site of the prayer house.
The news comes after criticism of Vorarlberg by the US State Department in its annual human-rights report.
The report criticised the province for changes in the law to make the building of minarets more difficult, a violation of "freedom of religious expression."
