Where was Field of Dreams filmed?
1989 film by Phil Alden Robinson
Field of Dreams (1989) was filmed in Boston, Dubuque, Dubuque County, Galena, Dyersville, Fenway Park and 1 more place, 7 places named in its Wikipedia article's Filming section, in the United States. Wikidata records no filming location for it at all, so the article is the only recorded source. Each place says where its claim comes from.
Left off on purpose. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Chisholm (Minnesota) in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. The article says Galena, Illinois, served as Moonlight Graham’s Chisholm, Minnesota. Chisholm is the town in the story; Galena is where it was filmed, and the atlas shows Galena. Source. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Dodger Stadium in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. The article names Dodger Stadium as a credential: the experts on sod laying responsible for it and for the Rose Bowl were hired to lay the baseball field in Iowa. No camera went to Los Angeles. Source. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Rose Bowl in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. The same sentence: the sod experts responsible for Dodger Stadium and the Rose Bowl were hired to build the field. The Rose Bowl is their past work, not a place the production went. Source. Not a shoot: The Wikipedia article for this production names Lake Michigan in the part this atlas reads for filming locations, and this atlas does not show it. The article says water was brought in by tanker from Lake Michigan to grow the corn to Costner’s height. Where the water came from is not where the film was shot. Source.
