    Tips

    October 14, 2023

    During the 1960s, the Sierra de Hoyo temporarily disguised itself as the Wild West. Movies like "A Fistful of Dollars", "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" or "Death Had a Price", were filmed in this place, Golden City, where there were previously sets typical of spaghetti westerns, starring the now legendary Clint Eastwood.

    However, the policies to protect the Madrid environment that were created years after the cinema town was abandoned led to the removal of the sets, leaving only the location with its views of the Sierra de Hoyo, and an augmented reality recreation of the place. .
