Tempio nazionale dell'internato ignoto, Historical museum and church building in Terranegra, Padua, Italy.

The Tempio nazionale dell'internato ignoto functions as both a church and a museum, displaying approximately 700 artifacts related to wartime internment experiences.

Following his survival at Dachau concentration camp in 1944, Father Giovanni Fortin initiated the construction of this memorial temple, which opened in 1953.

The temple preserves documents, photographs, and objects that detail the experiences of 650,000 Italian deportees in Nazi concentration camps from 1943 onwards.

Located at Viale dell'Internato Ignoto 24 in Padua, the museum operates from Thursday through Sunday and provides wheelchair accessibility for visitors.

The memorial received the Medal of Military Valor from the Italian Republic for commemorating prisoners who endured political and racial persecution.
