Filming locations inside Strasbourg

4 places inside Strasbourg, each with a page of their own. Every production shot at them is already listed above, because Wikidata records them against Strasbourg too.

Named here by Strasbourg’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Strasbourg, 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.

The Duellists 1977

“The opening scenes of the 1977 Ridley Scott film The Duellists take place in Strasbourg in 1800.” Wikipedia

Drawn from this place

Manga whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Strasbourg 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.
