Locations in Italy

The 120 most notable are above. Every place in Italy, A to Z, with how many productions each carries:

Set in Italy, not filmed there

15 more places in Italy appear on this atlas because a game, an anime or a manga is SET there. Nothing was filmed at them: a drawn or rendered work is filmed nowhere, and some of these places are invented and pinned on what Wikidata says they are based on.

Also shot in Italy, without a precise location

Wikidata records 67 more productions as shot in Italy while naming only the country or the state: true, and too coarse to pin, so they are named here rather than dropped or guessed at.

Also named as shot in Italy by their Wikipedia articles

32 productions name Italy in their Wikipedia articles as where they were shot, without a place inside it, so they are listed here rather than pinned or dropped.

Productions filmed in Italy

1,330 more productions are listed on the pages of the places above.
