This is a photograph of the Italian Chapel located in Lambholm on the south eastern side of the mainland of the Orkney Islands. This is one of two relics of Camp 60 which housed, in the later years of the Second World War, several hundred Italian Prisoners. These men, captured during the North African Campaign, were sent to Orkney to work on the Churchill Barriers, a massive series of concrete causeways whcih seal the eastern approaches to Scapa Flow. The prisoners transformed two Nissen huts into the chapel. Domenico Chiocchetti, an artistic prisoner, along with several other prisoners transformed the interior of the huts by creating and painting altar scenes and building a wrought-iron sanctuary screen. Temperatures were in the upper 60's on this partly cloudy afternoon.
