Visit the Italian Chapel, a beautiful Roman Catholic chapel in Lambholm which was constructed by Italian POWs during the Second World War.
One of the most famous sites in Orkney, the Italian Chapel is a beautiful place of worship which is a marvellous testimony to the craftsmanship and resourcefulness of the men who built it, Italian Domenico Chiocchetti and his fellow prisoners or war. Arriving in Orkney to work on the construction of the Churchill Barriers, the prisoners built the chapel from two Nissen huts in 1943, using material from sunken blockships in Scapa Flow. Admire its stunning interior including its beautifully designed chancel, wrought iron alter rail and painted glass windows depicting St Francis of Assisi and St Catherine of Siena.
