Where is SPR and BoB filmed?

[PerMilitaria]

Hello!

Maybe you have already discussed this before on this forum but where is Saving Private Ryan filmed ? Can I go visit the places in the film somewhere ?

And in Band of Brothers, where is the Bastogne episode filmed ?

Best wishes from Per.

That is correct, not sure about the other 'outside' scenes though.

I looked on the internet and found out that most of it was filmed in a 500 acre at Hatfield Aerodrome.

The beach stuff in SPR was filmed in Southern Ireland.
