The Italian Chapel is a charming Catholic chapel located on Lamb Holm in the Orkney Islands, built by Italian prisoners of war during World War II. These creative prisoners used limited materials to construct a beautiful place of worship, complete with intricate decorations and a facade that made the building look like a church. The chapel has since been restored and remains a popular tourist attraction, drawing over 100,000 visitors annually. It stands as a symbol of reconciliation and showcases the prisoners' remarkable craftsmanship and resilience during challenging times.
