The Name of the Rose
The Name of the Rose is a 1986 historical mystery film directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud, based on the 1980 novel of the same title by Umberto Eco.
Most interior scenes were filmed at Eberbach Abbey in the Rheingau region. The scenes set within the library's labyrinthine interior were shot at the Cinecittà Studios near Rome. For the abbey's exterior shots, one of the largest sets in European film history was constructed starting in mid-1985 on a hill near Prima Porta, a suburb of Rome, based on designs by Dante Ferretti. This included a 30-meter-high library tower modeled after Castel del Monte. Landscape shots were filmed in the Abruzzo region, northeast of L’Aquila. Additional scenes were shot at the castle in Molina de Aragón, Spain.
