“Other shooting locations included the city of Cefalù, often standing in for Syracuse, and the Province of Trapani.” Wikipedia
Named here by Cefalù’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Cefalù, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
