If a high-speed chase around Europe is your thing, there’s where to find The Jackal’s most notable spots. Only on Sky Atlantic and NOW.

The Day of the Jackal wastes no time in jumping around Europe in this international chase to track down a killer.

Across the first 10 episodes, the team went out of their way to show the scope of The Jackal’s crimes – ranging from London to New York and everywhere in between.

But in actuality, The Day of the Jackal was mainly shooting in four locations – London, Croatia, Hungary and Austria – which contained areas and sets that could fill in for the more than dozen countries that are visited.

Here are just some of the most notable locations from season one of the show.

Real Location: Vienna, Austria

In the opening episode of The Day of the Jackal, we find our assassin successfully completing a mission in targeting political figure, Manfred Fest.

After deliberately botching a murder attempt at his offices, The Jackal draws Manfred out by injuring his son, Elias, and then shooting him in front of protestors as he walked through the door.

The shot was a record-breaking hit, with The Jackal miles away in a hotel room.

But rather than this all unfolding in Munich, Germany, like we’re told, the scenes were actually filmed in the Austrian capital, Vienna.

The main building used was Strabag House, a construction company’s office and art gallery in the district of Donaustadt.

Real Location: Rabac, Croatia

While in the series The Jackal and Nuria’s home is located in Cadiz, Spain, in reality the house is actually in Rabac, Croatia.

However, the set designer used Spanish influences to give it a rustic Spanish flair, with the luxury villa overlooking the sea – the perfect hideaway for an assassin to raise a family.

Real Location: Sewing and Craft Superstore, Balham, London

In a bid to track down arms dealer Norman Stoke during her initial investigation into the Jackal, Bianca heads to Belfast to talk to her contact, Sparrow.

Sparrow, real name Alison, looks shy and introverted, and is tracked down in her haberdashery store.

But unlike Bianca, actress Lashana Lynch had a little less distance to travel for the scene, with the scenes being shot at Balham High Street’s Sewing and Craft Superstore.

Real Location: Labin, Croatia

During episode two, Bianca gets her first major break in her hunt for arms-creator Norman Stoke – and heads with a team to Belarus in order to get him.

What ensues is a massive stand-off, with Stoke just about getting away, even if injured after Bianca manages to clip him in the arm.

The show’s Belarus stand-in is another Croatian location, this time in the town of Labin – a quiet and peaceful area located in the West of the country.

While Croatia is known largely for its scenic landscapes and sunny temperatures, this area contains large areas of woodland.

Real Location: Budapest, Hungary

In one of the most pivotal scenes of the show, The Jackal and Bianca head to Tallinn, Estonia ahead of the assassination attempt on Ulle Dag Charles.

He is making a speech about the launch of River at a theatre – making him a sitting duck for a killer such as The Jackal (and as it turns out, someone else).

However, while Tallinn is a real city, the theatre in which they shot is called Müpa, which is in Budapest, Hungary.

It prides itself in being a cultural hub for the city, and is built to represent over a century of the country’s heritage.

Paul Wilmshurst, the episode’s director, said: “It’s an amazing space. It’s got such nice lines and textures and colours.”
