Pegida Österreich is the Austrian version of the anti-immigration, anti-Islam PEGIDA movement which began in Dresden, Germany.

Activities

Pegida Österreich held a demonstration in the Austrian capital Vienna on 2 February 2015 that drew just 200 people and reportedly 5,000 counter-protesters. Deutshe Welle notes that before the PEGIDA march swastikas had been gratified on a Vienna mosque. In December, a pig's head had been left outside a different mosque in the capital.[1]
