    Default That Other Geographical Quiz Thread!

    Well, since the other thread is so popular, here is a second one to keep things interesting, and, to keep things snappy!

    This one will be probably hard. I will give clues as needed, but not at first.

    What is this place, and where is it?









    Bonus points if you can tell if it's been in any films, and can correctly name the film(s) it was used in.

    Well I know that! But the building looks orthodox to me. And the terrain looked flat, so I wondered if it wasn't technically Russia, but near there! I guess that I need to study up on my church architectural history huh?

    It looks like it is located on one of the North Atlantic islands.

    It's the Italian chapel on Lamb Holm,Orkney

    Built by Italian prisoners of war





    Pretty cool inside
    Cattle die, kinsmen die,
    the self must also die;
    but glory never dies,
    For the one who is able to achieve it.

    Sayings of the High One.
