Winnetou muzeum a filmování umístění v Paklenica

Croatia, in particular the area around the Paklenica National Park in the Zadar region, is well known by many film fans: Many of the film scenes from Karl May's "Winnetou" were filmed here in the country's often rough, rocky and karst landscapes. Popular destinations for movie fans include the locations around Starigrad Paklenica, which lies about 50 kilometers from the northern Dalmatian city of Zadar. Croatia's stunning landscapes have served as the backdrops for eleven films in the series. Most movies were shot in the Velebit Mountains around Paklenica. Other popular filming sites for the popular Karl May movies include the Zrmanja Canyon, Omis, the Cetina River, the Paklenica National Park and the Plictiver Lakes. This was all made possible, among other things, because of Rialto Film from Berlin working with a production company from Zagreb. Filming for "The Treasure of Silver Lake", "Among Vultures" and many more took place in the years between 1962-1968.

Due to the great value placed on the region as a film site as well as being a popular destination for tourists, the former Motel Alan in Starigrad Paklenica opened the first Winnetou Museum in 2009. The museum is not only a building housing many original movie props such as canoes, costumes and headlights, but is in itself of great importance for fans because this is where many of the movie stars and crew members were quartered during the filming. Guests today can, therefore, still visit the room in which Pierre Brice and Lex Barker once slept.

The Winnetou Museum is open from early April to late October, from 12:00 AM until 1:00 PM and from 5:00 PM until 6:00 PM. Groups receive a tour upon request. The entrance fee is free. Those who want to get to know the locations better will find a billboard in front of the Museum, which indicates where each film site is located. Due to the film sites being nestled within the National Park and towering mountains, a visit to each of the individual locations can be wonderfully combine with a hike.
