In 1942, approximately 1200 Italian POWs were brought to Orkney to work on the construction of the Churchill Barriers, a series of causeways built to protect the naval base at Scapa Flow from enemy attacks. The Italian prisoners, many of whom were skilled artisans, created the chapel using the materials available to them, such as scrap metal, wood, and concrete, as well as their own creativity and resourcefulness. The Italian Chapel is not only a piece of art but also a symbol of hope and resilience. During the war, the chapel provided the Italian POWs with a place of solace and spiritual refuge. Despite the harsh conditions of captivity, they poured their heart and soul into building the chapel
