Spaghetti Western Locations

We continue our search for locations for “A Few Dollars for Django”. After killing the outlaw Freeman and recovering the stolen bank money Regan returns the money to the bank. There he learns that the leader of the gang of thieves is Jim Norton who has supposedly died. Regan tells the bank president and manager he is going to pay a visit to Norton’s twin brother Trevor who owns a ranch in Montana.
 
The interior shot of the bank would have been shot in Hoyo de Manzanares on the set of what was referred to as Golden City. This is the town used in “Fistful of Dollars”. Nothing remains there today but a water trough and a dirt road through what was the center of town. Even the rubble of what were the remains of the town’s buildings has been removed.
