"Domenico Chiocchetti was a quiet, kindly man, an Italian artist caught up in a war that would change his life forever. When he and his friends and fellow prisoners of war arrived on the tiny Orkney island of Lamb Holm in January 1942, they found a freezing, windswept wilderness and a seemingly impossible task - to build giant causeways in the sea to protect the British Navy. It was a life seemingly without hope, until the arrival of Padre Giacomo. When the Padre arrived he brought a new hope for the future and helped Domenico persuade the British to allow him to build a chapel. Little did they."@en
