The author studies the critical temperature of periodic Ising models. The main result is the following theorem: Let \(T_c\) be the critical temperature of the ferromagnetic, two-dimensional periodic Ising model, defined by the largest temperature such that the spontaneous magnetization is strictly positive, then \(0<T_c< \infty.\) \( T_c\) is determined by the condition that the spectral curve of the corresponding dimer model on the Fisher graph has a real zero on the unit torus \(\mathbb{T}^2.\) This theorem allows one to compute the critical temperature of arbitrary periodic Ising ferromagnets accurately by solving an algebraic equation.
