Barcelona 1917 (Espionage Escapades)

First aired: 10/12/92

Directed by: Terry Jones

This episode actually filmed quite extensively in Barcelona, with a few shots picked up in Prague. An excerpt from George Lucas: The Creative Impulse:

“The rich variety of the Young Indy films was never better demonstrated and, as always, the film was shot on location, this time in Spain and Prague.”

This shot looks toward the city of Barcelona (with the monument of Christopher Columbus on the left) from the Placa de les Drassanes, near the Maritime Museum.
