The Italian Chapel

In the remote Scottish Orkney Islands, during World war Two, 550 Italian prisoners of war were captured and taken to Orkney.
They were barracked at Camp 60, and were given a hut to turn into a Chapel for their religious needs.

Just go and look at what they managed to create.

I doubt that 550 youngsters picked up off the streets in any town in the UK could have managed to achieve anything so beautiful.........
