Spaghetti Western Locations

We continue our search for film locations for “Texas Addio” (aka “The Avenger”). As Jim rides back to town we see his brother Burt packing his saddlebags and giving his sheriff’s badge to Dick. We then see Burt riding across the rocky countryside. Suddenly someone in the rocks above take a shot at Burt. He dismounts and takes cover behind a large boulder.


The location of this scene is Hoyo de Manzanares and is the same location that “Fistful of Dollars” was filmed. You can see similar rocks as these in the shootout at the cemetery where The Man With No Name has propped two dead soldiers up against a tombstone while the Rojos and Baxters shoot it out over capturing them.
