Armour of God - Jezuitski trg, Zagreb

In the Summer of 2018, my wonderful girlfriend Madeleine and I went on an unforgettable road trip with our fire red '92 Volkswagen Passat. We drove through Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia and Czech Republic. Of course, I didn't want to annoy her with my constant search for filming locations, but I couldn't ignore the chance to see some Armour of God locations in real life. In the end, we did take one or two time-consuming detours, so that I could pursue my nerdy hobby. Thank you very much, Madeleine, for your patience and tolerance. I love you! 

Jezuitski trg ("jesuit square") is the place where the car chase begins. By the way, we didn't go to every place where the film was shot, so a second road trip will be inevitable. I hope this isn't too much of a shock for Madeleine.

Armour of God - Most čez Savo in Krko, Brežice

Armour of God features two spectacular scenes that take place on bridges. After talking about the huge bridge jump in Zagreb, it does make sense to check out the filming location of the car explosion that puts an end to the film's extensive chase sequence.
The scene was filmed next to a town called Brežice in eastern Slovenia, near the Croatian border. The name of the bridge is "Most čez Savo in Krko", meaning something like "bridge over the rivers Savo and Krko". When we arrived there, the two-parted bridge was closed because of some construction works. Nevertheless, I could sneak beyond the barriers for some snaps.

 

Armour of God - Motovun Part I

Motovun is a picturesque village in central Istria, Croatia. Armour of God makes good use of it three different times, so I decided to split this article into three different parts. In the first one Jackie and Alan try to trick the monks with a fake armour. That leads us to a trigger-happy Lola Forner snipering from the church tower.

Armour of God - Motovun Part II

Motovun's second appearance displays Andrea Antico Square in the late evening. We see Jackie, Alan and Lola talking with the garcon. They get new informations about the mysterious monks and  their whereabouts.

Armour of God - Motovun Part III

Here comes the third (and last) opportunity to marvel at Motovun's flair. Jackie and Alan are ready to infiltrate the evil brotherhood diguised as monks.
