The Isole Tremiti, also called "Isole Diomedee" (Diomedes's Islands, from Greek Diomèdee, Διομήδεες) are an archipelago in the Adriatic Sea, north of the Gargano Peninsula. They constitute a "comune" of Italy's Province of Foggia and form part of the Gargano national park.
The islands were used for the internment of political prisoners during Benito Mussolini's Fascist regime.[3] But it was also the prison of Julia the Younger, the granddaughter of Augustus and, in 780, the prison of Paul the Deacon at the behest of Charlemagne.
