Continuing our search for filming locations for the 1966
film “Navajo Joe”. After Joe kills two of Duncan’s henchmen sent out to bring
back his scalp. He ties them to a horse and sends them back to Duncan. Vee sees
Joe on the hill top and then he turns and rides away. Duncan and his gang ride
on to the town of Esperanza to cash in the scalps they have taken for a dollar
each.
The town set used for Esperanza is a combination of the
western town set in Di Laurentis Studios south of Rome, Italy, a set in
Granada, Spain and Mini Hollywood (Oasys) in Almeria, Spain. All of the
interiors were filmed in Rome while the exteriors were shot at both western sets.
The shot below is the Di Laurentis western set in Rome.
