Movies and TV series filmed in Barcelona

The 59 most widely covered are above. The other 44 filmed in Barcelona:

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Barcelona as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Movies and TV series filmed elsewhere in Barcelona

2 productions shot at 19 places inside Barcelona, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Barcelona itself.

7 more places are inside Barcelona — see them on the map.

Set here

Anime that take place here. Nothing drawn was ever filmed here, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Barcelona, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.

Drawn from this place

Anime whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Barcelona as a real place their setting was modelled on. Nothing was filmed here and no story happens here: somebody drew it from here. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, which is why it sits under its own heading, and each production’s page links the article the claim came from.
