Where Was The Falcon And The Winter Soldier Filmed?

The Short Answer

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was filmed primarily in Atlanta and Savannah, Georgia, USA, with additional shooting in Prague, Czech Republic. Production was based at Trilith Studios, formerly Pinewood Atlanta Studios, near Fayetteville. Prague doubled for Tunisia, Latvia, Turkey, Poland, Germany, and St. Petersburg, Russia, while Georgia stood in for Louisiana, Washington D.C., Baltimore, and Madripoor.

Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes travel the world in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, from Delacroix, Louisiana to the fictional crime city of Madripoor. In reality, almost none of it left the American South. Production began in Atlanta on October 31, 2019, paused in March 2020 because of COVID-19, then resumed in September 2020 in Atlanta and in October in Prague.

The good news for fans is that several key locations are easy to visit. Some sit on public streets in central Atlanta, others are museums you can ticket into, and a handful are private homes best admired from the sidewalk.

Location By Location

This studio complex in Fayetteville, outside Atlanta, served as the production base for the series. It is not open to the public, so there is no tour or visitor access to the soundstages where the interiors were built. Travelers can drive past the facility, but the practical reason to come is the town of Trilith itself, a planned community with shops and restaurants near the studio gates.

In the opening episode, Sam Wilson hands over the shield to the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum here. The museum is ticketed and open to the public, so visitors can walk the same spaces seen on screen, though the Captain America exhibits themselves were set dressing. Check current hours and exhibitions before visiting, as galleries rotate regularly.

The Capitol stood in for the Department of Defense, hosting the press conference that introduced John Walker as the new Captain America. The building is public and the Capitol Museum inside is open to visitors, with tours available. It is a short drive from other Atlanta filming sites, which makes it an easy stop on a self-guided route through the city.

This historic Atlanta house played Sharon Carter's Madripoor apartment, appearing across three episodes. It is a private building, so access is limited to exterior views from the street. The architecture alone makes it worth a brief stop for fans tracing the Madripoor storyline, since much of that fictional city was stitched together from Atlanta and Prague locations.

This modest Atlanta address stood in for Isaiah Bradley's home in Baltimore, seen in episodes two and five. It is a private residence on a residential street, so visitors should view from the exterior only and respect the privacy of the people who live there. A quick photo from the sidewalk is the respectful way to mark the spot.

The graffiti-covered Krog Street Tunnel became the Madripoor tunnel in episodes three and four. It is fully public with pedestrian access, one of the easiest locations on this list to visit at any time. The ever-changing street art means the walls may look different from the show, but the tunnel's gritty character is unmistakable.

This active Atlanta airport doubled as the Berlin and Bratislava airfields in episodes two and three. It is a working facility with no public access to the areas used for filming, so travelers cannot walk the tarmac. The airport is best treated as trivia for the drive past rather than a planned stop.

The military hangar and Air Force scenes in episode two were shot at this base in Marietta, Georgia. As an active military installation, access is restricted and there is nothing for tourists to see beyond the perimeter. Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama also received credit for military scenes in the series.

This historic Prague palace became the Riga GRC Resettlement Camp in episodes three and four. It is open to the public, though visitors should check current visiting hours before arriving. The palace is one of several Prague locations that stood in for Latvia, part of the show's extensive use of the Czech capital as a stand-in for multiple countries.

This Prague monastery and church served as the Vilnius GRC Supply Depot and other Riga scenes. It functions as an event venue and historic site, and tours or events may be available depending on the schedule. Visitors should check ahead, since access depends on what is booked at the venue on any given day.

Prague's Troja Bridge appeared as the Madripoor Bridge in episode three. It is a public bridge open to both pedestrians and vehicles, making it one of the simplest Prague locations to visit. Fans can walk across and match the angles from the chase sequence while exploring the Troja district on the city's north side.

This large public cemetery in Prague became the Riga Cemetery in episode four. It is freely accessible, though visitors should be respectful of mourners, as it remains an active burial ground. The cemetery's scale and atmosphere made it a convincing stand-in for the Latvian capital's somber scenes.

A private house in Savannah's Vernonburg area stood in for the Wilson family home in Delacroix, Louisiana, appearing in three episodes. The Louisiana dock and seafood scenes were filmed nearby at Moon River at Downing Piers on Skidaway Island. The house is a private home, so travelers should view from outside and respect the owners' privacy.

Where It Is Set Versus Where It Was Filmed

The story hops between Louisiana, New York, Baltimore, Washington D.C., Madripoor, and Riga in Latvia, among other places. The cameras rarely left Georgia and the Czech Republic. Atlanta and Savannah stood in for the American settings, while Prague doubled for Tunisia, Latvia, Turkey, Poland, Germany, and St. Petersburg, Russia. Production was briefly planned for Puerto Rico but was canceled after earthquakes hit the island.

The Studio Side

Production was based at Trilith Studios, formerly Pinewood Atlanta Studios, in Fayetteville outside Atlanta. The studio is not visitable, so fans hoping for a stage tour will need to content themselves with the publicly accessible locations around Atlanta, Savannah, and Prague instead.

Tours That Visit These Locations

Independent visits cover most of the Atlanta locations, but a guided option exists for travelers who prefer someone else to handle the route and the backstory.
