Níjar is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 5 productions, in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.

17 productions were filmed at 14 places inside Níjar rather than at Níjar itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.

“Production designer Carlo Simi built the town of "El Paso" in the Almería desert; it still exists, as the tourist attraction Mini Hollywood. The town of Agua Caliente, where Indio and his gang flee after the bank robbery, was filmed in Los Albaricoques, a small "pueblo blanco" on the Níjar plain.”
