Sad Hill Cemetery

Sad Hill Cemetery (; ) is a tourism site and former film location in Contreras, Burgos (northern Spain), designed by Carlo Simi in 1966 and built by the Spanish Army.

Significance

Sad Hill Cemetery is where the last sequence was filmed for the film The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966). It was rebuilt in 2015. The reconstruction was recorded in the documentary Sad Hill Unearthed (2017) by Guillermo de Oliveira.

Status

In 2017, the Asociación Cultural Sad Hill (Sad Hill Cultural Association) planned to name Sad Hill Cemetery a Bien de Interés Cultural.

In 2024, the Sabinares del Arlanza Natural Park announced a plan to rebuild the Betterville prisoner camp at its filmed location about 6 km from Sad Hill. The stockade will be rebuilt using thousands of Juniperus thurifera that burned in 2022 in Santo Domingo de Silos.
