Location 01Cantacuzino Castle
Prahova County, Bușteni, Romania Ticketed
Filmed here: Nevermore Academy exterior and aerial shots
Built between 1901 and 1911 as a summer residence, this castle in the Carpathian mountain town of Bușteni stood in for Nevermore Academy's exterior and aerial shots in Season 1. Visitors today can tour the castle, which houses an art gallery, and wander grounds that will look instantly familiar from the show's establishing shots. Tickets are required. It is roughly a two-hour drive from Bucharest and pairs well with other Prahova Valley sights.
Location 02Charleville Castle
County Offaly, Tullamore, Ireland Ticketed
Filmed here: Nevermore Academy interiors, corridors and exteriors
This gothic revival castle in Tullamore, County Offaly, took over Nevermore duties in Season 2, providing interiors, corridors and exterior shots. Restoration of the castle began in 1971, and it remains a heritage project run by a trust. The castle opens to the public through heritage trust tours, so check opening times before traveling. Its oak woods and atmospheric interiors made it a natural successor to the Romanian sites of Season 1.
Location 03Powerscourt Estate
County Wicklow, Enniskerry, Ireland Ticketed
Filmed here: Camp Jericho / Camp Outcast and Nevermore cemetery scenes
In County Wicklow near Enniskerry, Powerscourt Estate hosted Season 2 scenes at Camp Jericho, also called Camp Outcast, plus Nevermore cemetery sequences. The estate's gardens are a major tourist attraction in their own right, and Powerscourt Waterfall, the highest in Ireland, appears in the camp scenes. Access is ticketed. Visitors can spend half a day between the formal gardens, the waterfall and the grounds visible on screen.
Location 04Ashford Studios
County Wicklow, Ashford, Ireland Private property
Filmed here: Main interior sets for Nevermore and other scenes
Located in Ashford, County Wicklow, this working studio housed the main interior sets for Nevermore and other Season 2 scenes. Like most active production facilities, it is private and not open to the public, so there is nothing to visit here. Its significance is logistical: the studio anchored the Irish shoot that also spread across Wicklow, Offaly and Dublin. Film fans staying in the area will pass close by without any chance of entry.
Location 05Bucharest Botanical Garden (Grădina Botanică Dimitrie Brândză)
Bucharest, Romania Free to see
Filmed here: Nevermore greenhouse and botany class scenes
The garden's greenhouse doubled as Nevermore's botany classroom, a fitting choice given its collection of over 10,000 plant species. The real greenhouse scenes in Season 1 were shot among genuine tropical plants rather than built sets. As a public garden with free or low-cost entry, it is one of the easiest and cheapest Wednesday sites to visit, sitting within Bucharest itself and reachable by ordinary city transport.
Location 06Palatul Monteoru (Casa Monteoru)
Bucharest, Romania Outside only
Filmed here: Nevermore Academy interiors including staircase and hallways
This historic Bucharest building provided Nevermore Academy interiors in Season 1, including the recognizable staircase and hallways. Today the building's interiors have limited access, but the exteriors can be viewed from the street, and the ornate facade gives a clear sense of the show's gothic aesthetic. It sits in central Bucharest, making it a quick stop that combines easily with the botanical garden and other city filming sites.
Location 07Politehnica University of Bucharest
Bucharest, Romania Free to see
Filmed here: Nancy Reagan High School expulsion scene
An active university campus in western Bucharest played the role of Nancy Reagan High School in the expulsion scene that opens Wednesday's story. Public areas of the campus are accessible, so fans can walk up to the building exteriors seen in that early sequence. There is no formal film tourism here, no plaques or tours, but for completists tracking every Season 1 location it is a straightforward add-on within the city.
Location 08Bazinul de Înot Dinamo (Dinamo Olympic Swimming Pool)
Bucharest, Romania Ticketed
Filmed here: Opening piranha attack scene in swimming pool
The famous opening piranha attack scene was filmed in this operational Bucharest swimming pool. It remains a working public sports facility with ticketed access, meaning visitors can genuinely swim in the pool where Wednesday took her revenge. Few filming locations offer that level of participation. Bring swimwear and standard pool entry fees apply, as this is a regular sports venue rather than a themed attraction.
Location 09Deansgrange Cemetery
County Dublin, Dublin, Ireland Free to see
Filmed here: Cemetery scenes
This public cemetery in south Dublin appears in Season 2's cemetery scenes. As an active burial ground, visiting requires respect for mourners and graves; it is not a film set but a functioning community cemetery. There are no tours or markers related to the production. Fans of gothic atmosphere will find it delivers, but the unspoken rule here is quiet appreciation rather than photo shoots.
Location 10Buftea Studios backlot
Ilfov County, Buftea, Romania Private property
Filmed here: Jericho town set, quad and other built sets
The entire town of Jericho, including the quad and surrounding streets, was constructed on the Buftea Studios backlot with minimal CGI. That means the Vermont town square seen throughout Season 1 physically existed in Romania, on private studio land that is not publicly accessible. Since the production moved to Ireland for later seasons, nothing is staged for visitors. The backlot matters to fans mainly as a piece of trivia about how the show was made.
Location 11Sinaia Royal Railway Station (Gara Regală)
Prahova County, Sinaia, Romania Free to see
Filmed here: Train station scenes
The royal railway station in Sinaia, built to serve Romanian royalty visiting Peleș Castle, provided the train station scenes in Season 1. It remains an active station with full public access, so travelers can arrive by train, as many do when visiting the Prahova Valley, and stand on platforms seen in the show. Sinaia is close to Bușteni, making Cantacuzino Castle and this station an easy paired visit.
Location 12Trinity College Dublin Business School
County Dublin, Dublin, Ireland Free to see
Filmed here: Newark Airport terminal scenes
Season 2 used this university building in central Dublin for the Newark Airport terminal scenes. Access is possible during events or organized tours rather than as a free-flowing tourist attraction. The transformation from business school to American airport was achieved through set dressing, so expect a modern academic building rather than anything inherently cinematic. It is a minor stop for dedicated fans already exploring Dublin's Wednesday sites.
